GBTA Convention 2018 marks the 50th edition of The Business Travel Event of the Year. For 50 years, GBTA has provided a platform for managed travel professionals to share new practices, policies and solutions to the industry’s greatest issues.

To invoke the spirit of all of these factors, we have chosen ‘MOMENTUM’ as our 2018 Convention theme. We are proud of the progress we have made over the past five decades, and look forward to the advancements yet to come as we look to the future. Please join us in August 2018 as we continue our momentum forward.”
