Optimism in the Mice Sector

There is optimism again in the European Mice Sector. This is the conclusion after analysing the last barometer published by American Express Global Business Travel.One-third of the travel managers who has answered the survey predict that they will increase their travel budget in the next three years. Last year the same question was answered in the same way by only 18%.

Moreover, half of the companies seek growing and expanding their activities in the rest of the world, 12% more than in 2014.

Now everything seems to be good news, because the European spending in business travel increased 1.42% in 2015, what means more than twice that what was predicted in the previous barometer (0.7%).

Regarding the priorities when managing company trips, the European agencies have answered that for them the keys are the security, the spending control and the traveller satisfaction, in that order.
