When it comes to corporate travel, there are a number of ways in which technology can make things easier.

In addition to computer-based applications that allow you to collaborate on projects and keep in touch with people in real-time from anywhere in the world, mobile applications or apps can provide corporate travel solutions.

In this article I've identified five of the most useful mobile apps for corporate travel.

" FlightBoard

FlightBoard is a very handy app which basically shows flight arrival and departure times on your phone or tablet device, just as if you were looking at the board at the airport.

This can be very handy for corporate travel if you're running late for a connecting flight for example. If you see your gate is now closed for boarding, you can then get a head start on making alternative arrangements.

With data from 400 airports and almost 1,500 airlines, FlightBoard is a comprehensive corporate travel tool.

" Expensify

Imagine being able to link your company bank cards to a mobile app that tracks all your expenses for you. Well, imagine no ...
... more. Expensify is one of a number of corporate travel solutions designed to make your life easier.

You can even use it to upload images of receipts, so you don't have to worry about losing any paperwork as you travel back to the UK.

" Wi-Fi Finder

Corporate travel often means being in a strange city or country and not having the local knowledge to find what you need.
If you need to send an email or download a document, the Wi-Fi Finder app has almost 150,000 free Wi-Fi locations across the world.

" Talk to Me

A common corporate travel problem is the language barrier. The Talk to Me app can instantly translate your phrase or sentence in English and play it back to you in one of 40 different languages. It can even convert whatever text you've typed into an audio file so you can play it back to someone rather than becoming tongue-tied.

" Groundlink

The last of the corporate travel solutions I want to showcase is Groundlink. Getting to and from the airport can be a hassle in a different country. Perhaps you're flight was delayed and your original driver is nowhere to be found.

Groundlink is a worldwide app that lets you book a car, see how much it costs and updates you on how long it will take to reach you.

The Co-operative Travel Management provides a range of corporate travel services to UK clients. They can advise you on a number of corporate travel solutions to common problems when going on business overseas.
