As travel programs face growing complexity across regions, content sources, and service channels, Direct Travel, Inc., now one of the world’s largest travel management companies, and Spotnana, a leading provider of modern travel infrastructure, today announced the launch of the 2026 Avenir Roadshow, a national event series designed to help travel leaders explore a more connected approach to global travel management in the age of AI.
As travel content becomes more fragmented and AI reshapes travel experiences, organizations are rethinking how global travel programs deliver value, visibility, and support at scale. The Avenir Roadshow is designed to create a forum for candid discussion around what modern travel programs require moving forward.
The roadshow will feature a series of high-impact events across major U.S. cities, bringing together travel leaders for peer discussion, customer insight, and a firsthand look at how connected technology is reshaping global travel programs. Each event will spotlight Avenir, Direct Travel’s modern global travel platform built on Spotnana’s cloud-native infrastructure and paired with a unified global service model.
Discussions will focus on topics including:
- Understanding how AI will reshape traveler experiences
- Using AI and real-time data to improve operational decision-making
- Delivering consistent traveler experiences across regions and service channels
- Managing dynamic and increasingly personalized travel content
- Simplifying global servicing and support through connected infrastructure
