Incorporation and launch of the European entity of JetSmarter Inc. to bring the successful US business model to Europe and turn it into one of the fastest growing lifestyle & travel companies.Taking responsibility of incorporating the European headquarters in Switzerland, finding office space to hiring the first team members, I then immediately turned to developing the business across Europe, closing several multi-million dollar contracts with private jet partners and developing our European JetShuttle service from zero to 40 weekly flights in a little over one year.With a deep understanding of the marketplace and where the challenges lay, and more importantly, where competitive advantage could still be derived.JetSmarter is now the market leader in Europe across all key services, has a large team of sales and operations specialists and recently added a new sales office in London.We do more than just private charters.It’s our innovative shared flight services, advanced mobile technology, and members-only approach that set us apart. And the more members who join, the better our service gets.
