The format of the event is evolving, particularly since its 2016 edition. Last year, Guillaume Col, GBT's CEO for France, Benelux and Southern Europe, described the event as \"a real success\".\u00a0<em>a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/evp-2016-american-express-gbt-cree-levenement-2-0-20160126.html\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>event 2.0<\/strong><\/a><\/em>\u00a0\", \"\u00a0<em>a condensed meeting<\/em>\u00a0\"with \"\u00a0<em>a shorter format<\/em>\u00a0\".

If \"\u00a0<em>a new look for the event<\/em>\u00a0\"But its climax remains unchanged: the presentation of the <strong>EVP Barometer<\/strong>the European business travel survey.<\/p>\n<p>To take the temperature of business travel, American Express GBT surveyed <strong>1000 companies in 11 countries<\/strong> companies. The number of companies surveyed has therefore been significantly increased, as has their geographical diversity. And unsurprisingly, passenger safety remains at the heart of the debate, as it was in the barometer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/securite-croissance-technologies-amex-annonce-la-couleur-pour-2016-2-20160128.html\/\" target=\"_blank\">TEU 2016<\/a>. In fact, the monitoring and <strong>employee traceability<\/strong> gained 5 points in this 2017 edition: a comfortable majority of companies (64%) are now equipped according to American Express GBT. In addition to locating travellers on the ground, the TMC also highlights the need for more detailed preparatory work, which focuses on the following prior to travel <strong>training and information<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>The traveller makes his voice heard<\/h3>\n<p>The other major trend in this 2017 barometer concerns the traveller himself, who is now considered to be \"the traveller\".\u00a0<em><strong>co-constructor of travel policies<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0\". When it comes to defining the rules governing business travel, the efficiency and productivity of the mobile professional would even become the second most important criterion. A third of the companies surveyed (+12 points) would now evaluate the effectiveness and productivity of mobile professionals as the second most important criterion. <strong>passenger satisfaction<\/strong>and adapt their travel policy accordingly. \"\u00a0<em>Travellers will play a proactive role in safety (<strong>Duty of Care<\/strong>), as well as across the entire value chain (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/les-programmes-de-fidelite-en-quete-de-personnalisation-20170113.html\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>loyalty programmes<\/strong><\/a>new suppliers, including those from the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/ces-nouveaux-entrants-qui-font-bouger-lignes-20160419.html\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>collaborative economy<\/strong><\/a>new booking tools...)<\/em>\u00a0\"say the authors of the study, who point out that \".\u00a0<em>the <strong>human dimension<\/strong> is particularly well represented\u00a0<\/em>\"this year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_59607\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-59607\" style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Barometre-EVP-2017.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-59607\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Barometre-EVP-2017.jpg\" alt=\"EVP Barometer\" width=\"700\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Barometre-EVP-2017.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Barometre-EVP-2017-300x96-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-59607\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The 2017 EVP barometer speaks of \"the emergence of the traveller as a co-constructor of travel policies\".<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>TMC at the heart of the ecosystem<\/h3>\n<p>Not surprisingly, the 2017 EVP barometer confirms the role of the corporate travel agency in the business travel landscape.
