Subscribe to our newsletterVictoria’s project consisted of creating and developing a new innovative brand of high-end travel, called “Milestro”, in partnership with the Belgian travel group Connections.
Being the entrepreneur behind this spin-off, Victoria’s role was to build the business from scratch. This encompassed all the tasks and challenges that are associated with the creation of a new business venture, including the development and positioning of the Milestro brand, the analysis of the market and trends in the current luxury travel sector, the development of a business and financial plan and a business strategy.
Victoria found being constantly on the move, from one country to the next, while working on the project a tough challenge. “I travelled to 24 destinations, meeting more than 350 travel industry players, and building a total of about 250 partnerships”, she explains.
This required a lot of good organization and some serious anticipation skills. One main thing she developed during her Prince Albert Fund year was a great ability to adapt to different environments, people, businesses, and cultures by keeping an open-minded attitude.
