This post is part of the 2014 Keynote Vote for The Beat Live 2014, in New Orleans Oct. 6-Oct. 8.
What will you speak about?
Consolidation in business travel technology: Going, going ... gone too far? Choices are narrowing as demand increases for new and better ways to manage business travel. Is the convenience of a single source worth it?
Why should the audience listen?
Their lives, well ok, their livelihoods may depend upon it.
How will you avoid a sales pitch?
Our sales pitch isn't the problem.
What insight do you want The Beat readers to share in advance to help you prepare for your presentation?
Vertical integration of a single company across the technology value chain is stifling innovation and limiting options.
