About Us

Global Travel Investments Ltd

 

Helping new travel businesses reach their full potential

 

Who...

Launched in 2010 by Mike Howarth, an aviation entrepreneur with an extensive track record in airports, airlines and air service development, GTI’s mission statement has been to invest in new travel business opportunities and help entrepreneurs turn their travel business ideas into reality.

 

Our promise to you as a new business is that for the right opportunity we will go beyond ordinary expectations of what a fledgling business owner can expect from the post-investment stage. We provide expertise in everything from business management and development, sales, marketing as well as finance if necessary - with a level of input and attention to detail that will leave you feeling glad we are part of your team.

 

We welcome enquiries from new travel business entrepreneurs, start-up firms as well as more established travel businesses.

 

What...

Global Travel Investments (GTI) bridges the gap between traditional investor knowledge and the new entrepreneurialism that deserves to get its chance.

 

Sadly, we recognise that many great start-up ideas struggle to attract the investment they deserve or even the time for a decent hearing. Banks and traditional investment houses, especially in the current climate, often lack the courage to take on bold, new ideas or to even consider them. Sometimes this can be due to a lack of specific industry knowledge and expertise. That’s where GTI comes in. We are a focused but friendly and approachable team, specialising in investments of the financial and skills kind, in the industry that we know best – the travel industry. We pride ourselves on our ability to identify opportunities within the global travel industry and our aptitude for innovating, predicting and reacting to changing market conditions.
