The Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) – the voice of the global business travel industry – and German
business travel buyer association VDR – today announced that Mr. Rob Greyber, President of Egencia®, will be a
featured speaker at their joint conference taking place in Frankfurt, 9-11 November. Rob will participate in the
conference's opening industry Centre Stage session, which will feature a panel looking at the dynamic business
travel distribution model and he will provide an expert perspective on how this is likely to evolve in the coming
years. Catherine McGavock, GBTA's Regional Vice President – EMEA said:"We are pleased to welcome Rob as a
featured speaker and know as an industry leader, he will provide unique insight to the topic along with other senior
industry leaders soon to be announced." Rob Greyber added:"Throughout my career, the only constant has been
change and the importance of managing it for success. I look forward to participating in a stimulating debate on
today's distribution landscape and appreciate the platform provided by GBTA and VDR." Rob is the President of
Egencia and is responsible for the organisation's overall strategy and operations worldwide. He's worked with the
Expedia group for over 11 years. Prior to Expedia, Rob worked in San Francisco for Scient Corp., a strategy and
technology consulting firm where he led the team that designed and built the initial web and operating infrastructure
for Hotwire.com, now a subsidiary of the Expedia group. Following the success of last year's conference, the event
brings together GBTA's annual conference in Europe with German partner association VDR's autumn symposium to
create Europe's foremost business travel conference, expected to attract more than 900 delegates from over 20
countries. Registration is now open, information on this and the conference programme is available on
