PRESS RELEASE
FCM Travel named Business Travel Partner of the Year – Large TMC at Business Travel Awards Europe 2026
London, UK, 1 October, 2026 – FCM Travel has been named Business Travel Partner of the Year – Large TMC at the Business Travel Awards Europe 2026, held in London.
One of the most respected accolades in the business travel industry, the award goes to the travel management company that has best demonstrated leadership, product and service development, and partnership with its corporate customers over the last 12 months. Winners are chosen by a panel of independent judges made of 35 travel managers and independent consultants.
The recognition highlights FCM’s ability to combine innovative technology with expert human support, giving travel managers the control they need and travellers the experience they want, without forcing a compromise between the two.
“Being named Business Travel Partner of the Year is a tremendous honour, and a real endorsement of the trust our customers place in us”, said Steve Norris, EMEA MD of FCM Travel. “Our focus has always been on delivering measurable outcomes, whether that’s savings, better traveller experiences or stronger duty of care, and that takes the combination of innovative technology and expert human support that our teams across Europe bring every day. This award belongs to them and to our clients who keep challenging us to raise the bar. We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved, but we’re not standing still.”
The win follows FCM’s recent launch of conversational booking, a 10-year contract renewal with Arcadis and continued new business wins across Europe, and reinforces FCM’s position as a leading partner for multinational businesses seeking to optimise their travel programme.
