Education Session
Who Decides? Governing Agentic AI in Corporate Travel
August 4, 2026
9:15 AM-10:00 AM CT
Room S406b
Co-Developed with Holly Brosam, Vice President, Product - Travel at Emburse
Agentic AI is moving beyond recommendations to autonomous action in travel shopping and booking. As AI gains decision authority, travel programs must decide how much control to delegate, what guardrails to enforce, and to maintain accountability. This session examines how travel programs can govern agentic AI responsibly through three critical control layers: traveler memory, corporate memory, and dynamic policy engines. Attendees will explore how these capabilities can support more personalized and efficient shopping while preserving policy integrity, transparency, duty of care, and trust.
Rather than focusing only on what’s coming, this session gives buyers and advisors a practical framework for deciding how agentic AI should be governed, controlled, and commercialized in managed travel programs.
