The Business Behind the Journey: Travelling on Business

Why Travel Still Matters in Superyacht and Aircraft Advisory

At Asteria Advisory, travelling on business is more than a requirement. It’s a core part of how we deliver value to our clients. Whether attending yacht and aircraft shows, international expos, or industry summits, showing up in person remains a powerful tool for business growth. Here are my thoughts on the business behind the journey.

Staying Present in a Global Industry

My work revolves around two fast-paced, high-trust sectors: yachting and aviation. These industries thrive on relationships. While digital tools help us stay connected, there’s no substitute for face-to-face engagement. That’s why events like the Monaco Yacht Show or EBACE are more than just calendar items — they are vital touchpoints for business development.

Beyond the Booths

These events demand long days. Early morning panels often lead to back-to-back meetings, followed by networking dinners and receptions that run late into the evening. It’s tiring, yes — but it’s also where the real work happens.

Over coffee, cocktails, or casual conversations, ideas are exchanged. Trust is built. Opportunities are uncovered. Often, it’s not in the scheduled meeting but in the unscripted moments that collaborations begin.

Asteria on the Move

Since founding Asteria Advisory, I’ve continued this tradition of active presence — now as a solo practitioner. These trips are not just part of my routine. They are an intentional strategy to stay informed, build partnerships, and offer hands-on support to clients navigating ship registration, aircraft certification, and cross-border legal structures.

Travelling on business has great advantages – both personally and professionally.

Travel keeps Asteria connected — and it’s through these global interactions that we continue building bridges, one conversation at a time..

Here’s to more and more – networking, networking, networking.
