In the ever-evolving world of corporate travel, significant changes are reshaping the landscape. As business travel suppliers distribute an explosion of content across a growing number of channels, the days of booking through a single or limited channels are quickly becoming a thing of the past.

In this episode of the SAP Concur Conversations podcast, Paul Tilstone shares independent insights provided by FESTIVE ROAD alongside Charlie Sultan, President of Concur Travel, as they explore today’s multi-channel reality and its impact on travel managers.

Fraud-Free Culture: The Power of People in Fraud Prevention
Technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), can be powerful anti-fraud tools. So can clear policies and rules.

In fact, in her experience, an ethical and compliant corporate culture “may be the most critical component of an entire anti-fraud program.”
