The Corporate Travel Community is governed by an advisory council, a regional body consisting of senior corporate travel executives from leading local organisations and multinational blue-chip corporations with physical presence in Asia or Australasia.
Council Members are hand-picked, based on their unique combination of background and expertise. The Council is instrumental in defining and shaping CTC’s direction and membership growth.
Their in-depth industry knowledge makes them an integral part of the Corporate Travel Community. They provide local market insights, identify pain-points, liaise with industry experts, facilitate solutions and recommend future developments.
