Denver, CO, Sept. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Direct Travel, Inc., a market leader in corporate travel management, today announced that its Avenir Travel Edition platform has been named to The Business Travel Magazine’s 2025 Tech Hotlist. The annual list recognizes the most impactful and forward-looking technologies transforming the business travel sector. 

Among 15 other recipients, Avenir made the list for standing out as a travel tech innovation shaking up the industry. Officially introduced earlier this year, Avenir Travel Edition offers travelers intuitive booking, gives travel managers unmatched visibility and control, and delivers always-on support for organizations of all sizes.
