American Express Business Travel, a global industry leader in business travel management, today announced Small Meetings eXpert, a first of its kind online marketplace reinventing the way users plan and book meetings with fewer than 50 attendees. This fully automated solution drives much needed control to what is considered one of the last areas of unmanaged T&E spending. Small meetings often represent unseen spend that can equal an incremental two thirds of a company’s managed meeting spend. Through the control and transparency provided by Small Meetings eXpert, companies are able to consolidate this previously unseen and unmanaged spend and ultimately drive significant savings to their bottom line.
