He went over the trends in luxury travel, the importance of experience for luxury travel, and the challenges and opportunities when attracting luxury travelers to Japan.

The event was well received, with demand and interest from Japanese companies were high. We also can observe a gap between Japanese and international players knowhow for investment, services, etc.

For international players, Japan is at a stage where they are looking to form partnerships and become pioneers in the new market. Asterisk can help support building the gap between both parties and create hospitality business opportunities in Japan.
