We are thrilled to have joined GBTA Foundation to host a #webinar exploring how the Sustainable Procurement Standards can support #corporatetravel buyers and #hotelcompanies. The Standards form a consolidated bank of #sustainability questions for #procurement, that aligns with international #sustainabilitystandards. It enables #corporate #travelbuyers to assess the #sustainability efforts of #suppliers in a consistent and #harmonised manner and, therefore, helps #hotels be better prepared to respond to requests. Watch the #webinarrecording: https://buff.ly/3Ma78aE Download the GBTA #SustainableProcurementStandards for hotels: https://buff.ly/3yI1rgT You can learn more about how GBTA | Global Business Travel Association is empowering organisations of all sizes to integrate #travelpractices that #reduceemissions at the #GBTA #SustainabilitySummit in Copenhagen on November 4th. Register today to join the discussion on the latest global #industrystandards, preparing for upcoming #regulations, and the radical #collaboration required to build a #sustainablefuture for #businesstravel ➡ https://buff.ly/3AtSKHJ #HotelProcurement #TravelProcurement #ProcurementStandards #CorporateTravelBuyers #SustainableBusinessTravel #HarmonisingSustainability #HotelRFP #CollaborationforChange

To support #hotels in doing so, we are honoured to have launched a new #guestblog series - with renowned international #countertrafficking expert, Dr. Halleh S. dedicated to raising awareness of human #trafficking, how to recognise the signs and #mitigaterisk across the #hospitalityindustry.
