Customer Reviews
Pulling the industry together
GBTA’s Business of Travel pulls together thought leaders across several categories and geographies in easy to digest conversations about current trends and opportunities within the corporate travel space.
Great content, terrible audio
I like what the GBTA is doing going into the podcast arena; however, a lot of work needs to be done to ensure listeners can hear what is actually going on during the podcast, and not be straining against technical audio quality issues.
