Change is constant in corporate travel, and ATMC is preparing for its next chapter. The Association of Travel Management Companies has named David Goldman as Chairperson for 2026.
Goldman will succeed Penny Spencer, who has led the association over the past year.
The group says the timing reflects ongoing shifts in distribution, technology and corporate expectations.
“As corporate travel evolves at pace, the need for strong advocacy, aligned partnerships and a unified industry voice has never been greater,” Goldman said.
“ATMC exists to ensure our members are informed, supported and represented with clarity and purpose. Together, we will help shape a future that is strategic, innovative and resilient.”
ATMC represents a significant share of Australia’s managed travel market, uniting leading travel management companies with airlines, hotels and technology partners. Its role spans advocacy, insight and promoting the value of managed travel.
A new partnership with the Australian Travel Industry Association (ATIA) has further strengthened ATMC’s collective voice, and according to the group, has delivered additional member benefits.
“As we enter 2026, ATMC’s role is more important than ever. I invite all TMCs to join us as we lead the next chapter for our industry,” Goldman added.
KARRYON UNPACKS: For agents and travel managers, this is about steady leadership during change, stronger advocacy and a united industry voice as corporate travel evolves nationwide.
