Business travel is changing fast. Expectations are higher. Budgets are tighter. Travelers want the same seamless experience they get when booking personal trips, while companies need more visibility, flexibility, and control.
That’s exactly why KAYAK for Business is heading to Business Travel Show Europe 2026.
This June, we’ll be at BTS Europe in London, one of the biggest gatherings in the business travel industry, bringing together travel managers, procurement leaders, HR teams, TMCs, and tech providers from across EMEA. If you’re attending, come find us at Stand G53.
We’ll be there to talk about where business travel is headed next — and why the old way of managing travel no longer works for modern companies.
What is Business Travel Show Europe?
Business Travel Show Europe is where the business travel industry comes together to talk about what’s next. From travel management and traveler experience to cost control, sustainability, and AI-driven technology, the event focuses on the challenges companies are actively trying to solve right now.
For KAYAK for Business, it’s the perfect place to connect with organizations looking for a better way to manage business travel.
Because business travel shouldn’t feel complicated.
KAYAK for Business redefines corporate travel planning, empowering both managers and travelers with an all-encompassing, easy-to-use experience that puts flexibility and simplicity first. No unnecessary friction. No bloated systems. Just smarter travel management built for the way people actually travel today.
Meet the Team at Stand G53
Our team will be on-site throughout the event, ready to talk about the future of business travel, scaling global programs, traveler expectations, hidden costs, modern travel tech, and everything in between.
Whether you want to dive into strategy, technology, operations, or traveler experience, there’s someone at the booth who’s ready to have that conversation.
What KAYAK for Business will be talking about at BTS Europe
The KAYAK for Business team will be at BTS Europe discussing how companies can build travel programs that feel simpler, smarter, and far more aligned with the way people actually travel today.
For Eva Fouquet, SVP B2B at KAYAK for Business, that starts with rethinking the traveler experience entirely.
“We’re building KAYAK for Business to work the way personal travel already does — with you in control.”
That shift toward consumer-grade business travel experiences is something the entire team is focused on. Travelers increasingly expect the same flexibility, transparency, and ease they get from leisure booking platforms, while companies still need visibility, compliance, and cost control. KAYAK for Business believes you shouldn’t have to choose between the two.
That balance becomes even more important as companies scale globally. Florian Mueller, Head of Commercial at KAYAK for Business, will be talking about how organizations can support growth without creating operational chaos along the way.
“The fix isn’t adding more tools. Come find me at BTS and I’ll show you.”
Because for many travel managers, the real challenge isn’t just managing travel. It’s managing disconnected systems, inconsistent traveler experiences, and processes that have become unnecessarily complicated over time.
At the same time, companies are under pressure to better understand where their travel spend is actually going. Tristan Hindley,Head of Sales, plans to challenge some common assumptions around cost control and program efficiency.
The biggest issues inside a travel program are often less visible — hidden inefficiencies, traveler leakage, low adoption, or workflows that quietly drain time and budget in the background.
Modernizing those programs takes more than surface-level changes. That’s something Cédric Lefort, France Country Manager for KAYAK for Business, sees firsthand when speaking with companies navigating transformation across their travel operations.
The goal isn’t simply digitization for the sake of it. It’s creating travel programs employees actually want to use, while giving companies the tools and visibility they need to manage travel effectively.
And underpinning all of it is the technology itself. Brad Gambling, Senior Product Manager at KAYAK for Business, will be talking about where travel tech is heading next — and why the future should feel far more intuitive than traditional corporate software.
“We are a lot like the apps you already use on weekends. Business travelers expect consumer-grade experiences, and KAYAK for Business is here to deliver.”
From AI and automation to traveler experience and smarter workflows, the focus at BTS Europe will be on making business travel work better for everyone involved.
So whether you want to talk about scaling globally, reducing friction, modernizing your travel program, improving traveler satisfaction, or simply understanding where the industry is heading next, stop by Stand G53 and meet the team.
