On Thursday 6th March, Corporate Travel Management took its SMART Technology roadshow westward with Head of Marketing and Technology Solutions.

On Thursday 6th March, Corporate Travel Management took its SMART Technology roadshow westward with Head of Marketing and Technology Solutions, Tom Clark delivering an enthusiastic hour-long presentation before a meet and greet luncheon at the Rydges Hotel in Perth. A receptive audience comprised of CTM clients and management, as well as a who’s who of procurement leaders and travel industry partners attended for a day of topical discussion and expert opinion regarding emerging technology and trends in the corporate travel market.

Originally unveiled mid-way through 2013, CTM’s SMART Technology platform is due to reach its pinnacle in August with the release of SMART Portal. The Next Generation travel management portal is a personalised proprietary ecosystem that enables the user to access all of CTM’s products with one username and password. Details of the SMART Portal sparked a great deal of interest and interaction from the Perth crowd, as it has consistently done at past SMART Technology events.

Whilst providing an in-depth description of where corporate travel technology is heading, Mr Clark previewed current and soon to be released SMART products and provided insight into why CTM SMART Technology is crucial to the market and becoming heavily sought after by Australian and global corporate travel consumers.

“Our CTM SMART Technology approach is very different to what most are used to in our industry. We are looking at things in a way that will add a new dimension to our existing technology platforms. We continue to make great progress and I’m excited about the future” Mr Clark said.
