Rebecca Xerri: This reflects the evolution of the sector in general and CDS Groupe in particular. I joined Ziad Minkara three years ago. Since then, the company’s scope has expanded significantly through acquisitions: Goelett in 2022, CRC in the DACH region in 2023 and most recently SIAP in Italy. When I arrived, we only spoke French in the corridors. Today we communicate in English, German, Polish, Italian, Croatian or Romanian in all countries where we are present. CDS is a leader in France and is becoming a major player in the European business travel market; Other acquisitions cannot be ruled out, especially in the Anglo-Saxon market. Grand Live 2025 will reflect this consolidation that is affecting all business travel, including a debate entitled “Consolidation: Stop or Restart?” “.
