FCM: a global corporate travel management innovator: here you discover insights in Middle East & Africa & the industry
As 2024 gains momentum, this newsletter edition delves into the intriguing trends that characterised the travel industry in 2023 and their potential impact on your travel programme decisions this year.
A noticeable trend that continues to persist is corporations across the Middle East and Africa region consolidating their travel programmes. Deep comprehension of nuances and best practices is paramount, particularly for procurement managers striving to unify their markets under a single TMC partnership.
As we embrace the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead, FCM remains steadfast in its commitment to dynamic business growth. The pervasive influence of AI continues to penetrate across various sectors, prompting FCM to establish a dedicated in-house department in late 2023. This strategic move aims to enhance automation, robotics, and insights, ultimately benefiting you, our valued customers.
FCM also remains enthusiastic about onboarding new customers across our expansive network of 30+ markets in MEA along with our regions in 70 countries.?
I’ll sign off by extending my sincere gratitude for your continued collaboration with FCM, whether locally, regionally, or globally. Together, we journey the evolving landscape of corporate travel with dedication and enthusiasm.
Thank you once again!
