Heavens Portfolio says that this strategic move will strengthen the company’s presence in key European markets
Heavens Portfolio, a Singapore-based marketing agency for luxury travel representation, has announced its expansion into Europe with the opening of its 17th office in Switzerland.
In a press statement, Heavens Portfolio says that this strategic move will strengthen the company’s presence in key European markets, including Switzerland, Monaco, Belgium, Greece, France, and Luxembourg.
HP says that it had recently expanded its footprint to the GCC region by acquiring the Travel Collection and formed a merged entity, the Travel Portfolio, and will soon introduce its presence in the Australia market.
The statement adds that the new office will be led by Gilles Repond, who has been appointed as Managing Director of Heavens Portfolio Europe.
The statement adds that Repond started his career in the aviation industry at the young age of 20 and since then worked his way up to Passenger Service Manager for a Ground Handling Agent.
He later took over his family business as Education Director for JT Camp, further expanding his expertise in high-end services.

Driven by his passion for travel, education, and luxury services, Gilles established a VIP Meet and Greet Service in Geneva, which later expanded to Zurich.
This service, linked to the private education sector, has significantly grown his network within the ultra-high-net-worth segment globally. Most recently, Repond was the Global Sales Director for Ultima Collection.
