Business travel remains one of the most effective ways for SMEs to build relationships, win new customers and expand into new markets. Yet many businesses focus solely on the cost of travel and miss opportunities to generate additional value from their travel investment.This seminar explores how growing businesses can make every journey work harder. Attendees will gain practical insights into managing travel more effectively, supporting employee engagement, and ensuring travel budgets contribute to wider business objectives.Using real-world examples and industry best practice, we will examine how businesses can unlock greater value before, during and after each trip. The session will also explore how Lufthansa Group's travel and rewards ecosystem helps both businesses and travellers benefit from business travel. From corporate rewards through PartnerPlusBenefit, to personal rewards through Miles & More, and additional earning opportunities, attendees will discover how one business trip can create value for the company, the traveller and future travel plans.Whether you're a start-up founder, business owner, executive assistant or decision-maker responsible for travel, you'll leave with practical ideas to maximise the return on your travel spend and support business growth.
