The committees will be comprised of GBTA members collaborating to generate industry toolkits, requests for proposals, white papers, templates, webinars and educational content, according to the association. The aviation committee will be chaired by Jörg Martin, managing director of CTC Corporate Travel Consulting; the technology committee will be chaired by Louise Kilgannon, global business partner at AstraZeneca Travel Service; the hotel committee will be chaired by Ulrika Rosen, travel manager at Tetra Pak; and the meetings committee will be chaired by Izania Downie, director of industry strategy at Lanyon. GBTA also has established a global liaison role in each North American committee to communicate with the other groups. In addition, the organization indicated it soon would announce the launch of a risk committee in Europe.
