Amadeus unveils game-changing technology to power corporate travel in Asia

Amadeus cytric Travel & Expense is an agile, all-in-one, mobile-first solution designed to power the needs of corporations and business travellers alike.

SINGAPORE – Over the past few decades changing traveller demands, combined with technology evolution and the mobile revolution, have dramatically transformed corporate travel. Digital has disrupted traditional travel behaviour and has given today’s corporate traveller a thirst for a more on-demand, mobile and personalised experience.

Yet many struggle with outdated technology and rely on multiple applications or websites to navigate their travel journey, meaning their corporations lack the agility and visibility on overall travel expenses. As Asia booms towards dominating the world’s corporate travel spend, the management of travel and expense processes and the wellbeing of the travelling workforce will have a critical influence on corporate performance for companies in the region.
