Customizable, all-in-one enterprise travel solutions will compound growth opportunities, finds Frost & Sullivan’s Digital Transformation team

Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
The global travel market is flourishing. Growth is driven by several factors, including airport expansion in tier 1 and 2 cities, high demand in emerging economies, government infrastructure development, a rise in disposable income, and adoption of cloud technology by enterprises for travel solutions and analytics. A major challenge has been the lack of awareness about solutions and how to they can be leveraged. Successful travel solutions providers will be those that offer multiple try-before-you-buy, customizable, all-in-one solutions that integrate with internal finance teams while providing a uniform experience across all platforms.
