Business


Clive Jackson is the Founder and CEO of Victor, one of the fastest growing jet charter companies in the world. Victor has access to more than 7,000 aircraft in 40,000 destinations and offices in London, NY and Santa Barbara.   Clive is a serial entrepreneur who has been at the forefront of the digital revolution developing innovative web services for luxury brands, financial services, technology and media.   Clive founded Global Beach, one of the UK’s leading digital agencies in 1993. In 2001 he spun out Autotorq.com, a new business providing bespoke dealer marketing and services to automotive manufacturers and their dealer networks across 26 countries.   Clive launched his current venture, Victor, in 2011. He wanted to revolutionise the world of private jet charter out of a frustration with the inconveniences of commercial air travel and the antiquated jet charter industry. Clive was on a mission to make aircraft charter easier, faster and more transparent than ever before.   Now, Clive is determined to lead the private aviation industry to a more sustainable future and has just launched an industry first climate action campaign which recognizes that privilege comes with responsibility, whether as a consumer or a business leader. It’s Clive’s mission to influence those that fly privately (CEOS, world leaders, politicians, celebrities) to be accountable for their environmental impact.   We talk about what it takes to be a serial entrepreneur, what it’s like to uproot an antiquated industry, how to build a sustainable business without sacrificing growth, and much more!   Connect with Clive:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clive-jackson-32325/   Check out Victor: https://www.flyvictor.com/en-us/ Use this link to sign up and get $1,000 off your first flight : https://refer.flyvictor.com/s/Ben09
