Why business travel will never be the same

Let’s not ignore just how much of a pain the typical business travel experience is. Employees don’t love keeping track of all their receipts. Travel managers have better things to do than reject out-of-policy trips. Accountants would rather do anything else than sift through piles of expense reports. Legacy business travel solutions don’t work for today’s workforce.



Fortunately, there’s a better way. Spotnana co-founder and CEO [Sarosh Waghmar](https://www.linkedin.com/in/swaghmar) and Brex Chief Revenue Officer [Doug Adamic](https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-adamic-0628112) have spent more than three decades working to transform the T&E space. In this fireside chat, they'll help you understand:

- Why business travel is fundamentally broken
- How a modern solution creates a better experience for employees, travel managers, and accounting teams
- That zero expense reports and 100% compliance are possible with Brex
