Corporate Travel Responsibility in an Era of Geopolitical Uncertainty
Employees on a business trip land in a city that was considered low-risk just 48 hours earlier.

No one is actively tracking the situation. This is no longer a rare scenario; it reflects the reality of modern corporate travel. Geopolitical instability disruptions evolve quickly, o
