The Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) and The Austrian Business Travel Association (ABTA), announced a formal partnership after a successful one year trial which commenced in 2011. The deal between the associations will see ABTA act as the Austrian partner to GBTA in Europe and all 50 ABTA members becoming full GBTA members through an enterprise membership scheme.
Paul Tilstone, Managing Director of GBTA in Europe, said “We are delighted the partnership trial was such a success and that the Austrians can see the huge benefits GBTA brings their association.”
The ABTA president, Hanno Kirsch, said, “We are excited to continue and further develop our relationship as a partner to GBTA. Our members will benefit hugely from GBTA’s advocacy, strong European network and global resources, which includes the creation of German speaking networks on the GBTA Hub.”
