This strategic move will strengthen the company’s presence in key European markets, including Switzerland, Monaco, Belgium, Greece, France, and Luxembourg.

The company recently expanded its footprint to the GCC and region by acquiring The Travel Collection and formed a merged entity, The Travel Portfolio; and lately in the Australian market

The new office will be led by Gilles Repond, who has been appointed as Managing Director of Heavens Portfolio Europe. Starting his career in the aviation industry at the young age of 20, Gilles 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, Gilles was the Global Sales Director for Ultima Collection.

As someone deeply passionate about luxury services and travel, I am thrilled to lead Heavens Portfolio’s expansion into Europe,” said Gilles Repond, Managing Director of Heavens Portfolio Europe. “This new chapter allows us to bring our unparalleled expertise in luxury travel and lifestyle to some of the most prestigious markets in the world. I am excited to work closely with our partners and clients to deliver exceptional experiences that embody the essence of luxury.”

Christine Galle-Luczak, CEO of Heavens Portfolio, commented on the expansion, stating, “Europe represents a significant growth opportunity for Heavens Portfolio, and we are delighted to have Gilles leading this charge. His extensive experience, combined with his passion for luxury services, makes him the perfect choice to head our European operations. We are confident that under his leadership, our new operations will thrive and further solidify Heavens Portfolio's position as a global leader in luxury representation.”
