There’s something powerful that happens when two industries that are so closely connected come together collaboratively under one roof.
This week in Singapore, the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) and Worldwide ERC (WERC) did exactly that, by creating an incredible opportunity for innovation and shared learning across business travel and global mobility.
For CAP Worldwide, it was an incredibly productive and meaningful week, where the senior leadership team had the opportunity to spend valuable time with our local APAC team - led by JP Lin, at the same time reconnecting with our valued clients and Brand Partners, as well as attend two outstanding conferences in one location. Singapore proved to be the perfect host city for conversations that are helping shape the future of mobility and business travel across the region.
By co-locating their Asia Pacific conferences, GBTA and WERC have created a truly valuable platform that reflects how interconnected our industries have become. The future of workforce mobility depends on stronger partnerships, smarter technology, and more joined-up thinking, and for the CAP Team, this event delivered exactly that.
Jo Layton’s take on the conference was very positive, celebrating the opportunity to connect, learn, and share insights with clients, partners and peers from across the region, but importantly for Jo, this conference also respected our CAPEarth goal of travelling consciously by combining two global conferences AND a team visit. “Being able to bring these 2 critical global communities together in such a fantastic location makes complete sense for our industry and is incredibly important for the future of extended stay accommodation.”
Recognised themes:
CAP recognises that one of the strongest themes throughout the conference was the growing convergence of mobility, business travel, technology, and employee experience.
Some key takeaways from the week included:
• A greater focus on flexibility, wellbeing, and personalised employee support
• Continued investment in digital transformation, automation, and AI-enabled mobility solutions
• Increasing complexity across regional mobility and cross-border workforce models in APAC
• Growing and continued emphasis on sustainability and ESG considerations within mobility programmes
Most importantly, the event reinforced something we strongly believe at CAP Worldwide – that collaboration across our industry has never been more important as organisations adapt to an increasingly dynamic global landscape.
Finally – As the CAP leadership closes a great week they would like to say a huge thank you to GBTA and WERC for bringing these communities together so successfully.
