Every manager has faced this dilemma: colleagues are spread across regions and everyone suggests a different city. Too often, the final choice is based on politics, habit, or assumptions. But there’s a better way.
The challenge of “best for all”
Finding the best location for a meeting means balancing competing priorities:
- Finance wants lower travel costs.
- Sustainability managers want fewer emissions.
- Employees want less travel fatigue.
Traditionally, there was no clear method to satisfy all three.
Why guesswork fails
A city that looks “fair” on a map might involve multiple transfers, higher ticket prices, or excessive CO₂ emissions. Without hard data, teams often choose a location that is suboptimal.
The data-driven solution
Convien eliminates the guesswork by calculating the optimal city based on:
- CO₂ emissions across all travel options
- Total travel cost, including business class policies
- Time and productivity impact
The result: one clear recommendation backed by data.
The benefits of getting it right
- Stronger collaboration.
- Lower budgets with transparent savings.
- Better ESG performance with measurable CO₂ reductions.
Conclusion
To find the best location for a meeting, stop debating and start calculating. With Convien, companies can make smarter choices that benefit everyone—finance, sustainability, and the team itself.
