Join the "Save The Rainforest 2025 Charity Gala" on Saturday 17th May 2025 at the Fairmont Monte Carlo
Save The Rainforest 2025 Charity Gala to be hosted on Saturday 17th May 2025 at the Fairmont Monte Carlo is more than just a night of elegance and celebration, it’s a powerful step toward protecting our planet’s rainforests and preserving biodiversity around the globe.
With this gala, we aim to raise awareness for the need to save our rainforests and its inhabitants worldwide. Together, we can create lasting change and champion the fight for our planet’s future. Now is the time to take action and make a difference for generations to come! In support of various conservation organisations yearly!
Save The Rainforest 2025 Charity Gala - Book Your Tickets Online!
The success of these initiatives depends heavily on the support of the international community. Global contributions are vital to sustaining efforts to heal the rainforests, safeguard endangered species, and secure a sustainable future for both wildlife and local communities.
Human civilization faces an unprecedented dual crisis threatening our future. The planet’s climate is destabilizing, driving extreme weather events, while biodiversity collapses at alarming rate, while hundreds of species go extinct daily, and entire ecosystems disappear. This crisis is fueled by human-driven greenhouse gas emissions, habitat destruction, fragmentation, pollution, and overexploitation. Immediate action is essential.
The Borneo Wildlife Preservation (BWP) supports local NGO's with vital tree-planting initiatives aimed at restoring rainforests. These efforts focus on replanting degraded areas, creating wildlife corridors, land purchases and promoting biodiversity. By aiding in reforestation, ancient migration routes for Bornean elephants can be reconnected, which is critical to preventing human-elephant conflicts and ensuring the survival of this endangered species. BWP projects also provides aid to rescued animals in human care.
These projects also generate jobs for local communities, empowering residents to actively participate in conservation efforts while fostering economic stability. BWP is committed to improving livelihoods, protecting biodiversity, and promoting coexistence between humans and wildlife.

Tailored Family Office and Domestic Recruitment Solutions for Relocating UK Families
A Seamless Transition: Tailored Family Office and Domestic Recruitment Solutions for UHNW, HNW, Royal, and VIP Families Relocating from London to Monaco or Dubai
For ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW), high-net-worth (HNW), Royal, and VIP families, a seamlessly managed lifestyle is essential—especially with recent UK tax changes prompting many to reconsider residency. The UK’s abolition of the non-domiciled (non-dom) tax regime and new restrictions on offshore trusts have increased tax liabilities for these individuals. With Monaco and Dubai offering favorable tax environments and exceptional living standards, many families are now exploring relocation options.
Navigating New Tax Rules and Transitioning Abroad
The upcoming UK tax changes mean UHNW and HNW individuals who previously benefited from non-dom status will now face taxation on worldwide income and gains, regardless of domicile, and will lose protections for offshore trusts. These changes are expected to bring significant tax burdens, and wealth experts predict that many non-doms may consider leaving the UK. Industry professionals have expressed concern about the impact on wealth retention, with David Goepel, Head of Private Client International at Evelyn Partners, noting, “Many of the proposed changes take effect from 6 April 2025, and so it will be essential for many clients to conduct a holistic review of their existing structures together with their wider estate planning. Leaving the UK is not the only option—but advice needs to be taken quickly before next April.”
Platinum Group Recruitment’s Comprehensive Relocation and Recruitment Services
Platinum Group Recruitment provides high-caliber recruitment for family offices and private households, designed to help UHNW and HNW families transition smoothly to Monaco or Dubai. Our expertise spans two core areas—family office and executive recruitment as well as domestic recruitment—to meet clients’ needs with professionalism and discretion.
Key Roles in Family Office Recruitment
Family offices serve as the operational center for UHNW and Royal families, overseeing wealth management, administration, and strategic projects. Platinum Group Recruitment sources experienced professionals for essential family office roles, including:
Head of Family Office: As a key leader, the Head of Family Office coordinates operations, oversees staff, and provides strategic support to manage high-level and daily activities. This role is essential in ensuring the family’s interests are managed with efficiency and professionalism.
Executive and Personal Assistants: These roles support the family’s daily logistics, from managing schedules and travel to handling confidential administrative tasks. With an understanding of Monaco’s cultural environment and complex administrative processes, executive assistants enhance lifestyle efficiency and manage all organizational tasks with professionalism.
Financial and Legal Advisors: Families benefit from advisors who provide expertise in wealth management, trusts, tax planning, and other critical areas. Platinum Group Recruitment connects clients with professionals who are experienced in handling sophisticated bespoke requirements and structures.
Key Roles in Domestic Recruitment
In addition to family office recruitment, Platinum Group’s domestic recruitment ensures that every detail of home life is managed seamlessly. Key roles include:
House Managers and Housekeepers: The House Manager oversees household operations, coordinating maintenance, managing staff schedules, and working closely with housekeepers to ensure the home runs with elegance and efficiency.
Butlers: Dedicated to high standards of service, butlers manage formal service, household organization, and personal service needs, collaborating with other staff to deliver a refined level of hospitality that meets the family’s expectations.
Bilingual Nannies and Governesses: For families with children, Platinum Group Recruitment provides access to experienced nannies and governesses who offer both caregiving and educational support. These professionals are particularly valuable for families prioritizing a bilingual and culturally enriched environment for their children.
Private Chefs and Security Personnel: Catering to families who value privacy and exclusivity, private chefs provide personalized dining and dietary experiences, while security personnel ensure a safe and secure environment for the family’s peace of mind.
Many UHNW and HNW families ask us to assist them in bringing their established household and family office staff when relocating from the UK to Europe, but the current visa approval process for UK passport holders has become lengthy and often impractical. With new Brexit regulations, European visas for these roles are increasingly limited. Platinum Group Recruitment provides guidance on local recruitment and integration, ensuring families can establish trusted teams locally in their new homes.
Ongoing Support and Services
Beyond recruitment, Platinum Group offers ongoing support to maintain a cohesive lifestyle across residences. Our fractional Chief of Staff services provide high-level assistance as needed, including project-based support, without the commitment of a full-time role.
Our Platinum Virtual Assistants (VAs) provide flexible part- or full-time support and concierge services for managing schedules, family projects, and administrative tasks. We offer packages tailored to each family’s needs, ensuring reliable support whether for a few hours each week or continuous assistance. We also offer turnkey relocation assistance to streamline moves to Monaco or Dubai, where we have 17 years of experience assisting expat families. This includes residency administration, schooling options, real estate guidance, and local business and cultural resources to integrate families into elite communities smoothly.
Luxury, Privacy, and Professionalism at Every Step
At Platinum Group Recruitment, privacy and professionalism are paramount. Each placement is carefully matched to align with the family’s needs, ensuring support by seasoned professionals who understand the demands of exclusive environments.
Monaco and Dubai represent refined living, luxury, and privacy, and we make these lifestyles accessible by managing every detail with care. From family office recruitment to household recruitment, Platinum Group ensures each family experiences the freedom and sophistication they expect.
Seamless Integration for an Exclusive Lifestyle
For UHNW, HNW, Royal, and VIP families relocating to Monaco or Dubai, Platinum Group Recruitment offers a path to luxury, privacy, and seamless integration. By delivering tailored recruitment solutions for family office and domestic roles, with concierge and ongoing support where necessary, we empower families to fully embrace these exclusive lifestyles with confidence and ease.

BOLLE Blanc de Blanc Tasting Notes
Fine bubbles release an expressive bouquet of crisp apple, juicy pear, zesty citrus, and a whisper of toasted notes. Dry, fresh flavors with a rich finish that is well-balanced with a touch of minerality. Our wine is double-fermented meaning that all the flavour comes only from the grapes, the terroir and the wine making process. There are no added flavorings, colors or sugar.
BOLLE has created a world first and unique wine making approach as follows:
High-Quality De-alcoholization
Our journey starts with a premium Chardonnay wine, which is gently de-alcoholized using a cutting-edge double column vacuum distillation technique. Unlike traditional methods like spinning cone or reverse osmosis, our approach is not only superior in preserving the wine's natural characteristics but also more environmentally friendly. The result is a pure, high-quality de-alcoholized wine, ready for the next step.
Secondary Fermentation
What truly makes BOLLE unique is our exclusive secondary fermentation process – something no other alcohol-free wine offers. We introduce fresh grape juice and yeast to the de-alcoholized wine, allowing it to ferment a second time. This step is crucial to preserving the authentic wine experience, naturally creating flavor, aroma, and mouthfeel without relying on artificial additives.
Patent-Pending Technique
BOLLE is the world’s only alcohol-free wine to undergo this patent-pending secondary fermentation. This ensures that every characteristic of the wine—flavor, texture, aroma, and appearance—comes purely from the grapes and the fermentation process itself, offering a genuinely authentic experience.

New Year Greetings from Savills Monaco - A Showcase of the Columbus Residence
Savills Monaco wishes you all a very Happy New Year: the Wood Dragon year which brings evolution, abundance and improvement apparently - so an ideal year to think about a change of residence! We are looking forward to seeing the landscape of Monaco evolve in 2024 with the completion of both Mareterra and Bay House: the Principality is set to welcome more new residents and will witness the termination of a new resort style area with Mareterra’s green space flowing through into the Larvotto beach.
We remain ready to help with rentals and sales. We will be continuing to market exclusively the serviced apartments in the Columbus Residence: these have proved very popular since they were created and have weathered well even lockdown storms. The studios are an ideal pied à terre for people starting off life here, or students studying here, and there is some availability. Please contact us to know more.
Otherwise, we are very happy to have some interesting off market sale instructions to offer: from large penthouses to renovate, to other options in good central residences. Again, please contact us to know more.
Monaco continues to lure, a safe haven in a turbulent world: we look forward to seeing you during 2024 and to new adventures on the real estate front!

During the Monaco National Day weekend, Club Vivanova and over 300 guests will host their 9th Edition Luxury Lifestyle Charity Gala Dinner in aid of Ecoute Cancer Réconfort and the Borneo Wildlife Preservation at the Salle d’Or Ballroom of the Fairmont Monte Carlo.
This annual black-tie gala begins at 7pm with an elegant Premier Cru Champagne cocktail, followed by a four-course gourmet wine dinner, a unique fashion show with ALTER Design by Pauline Ducruet (daughter of H.S.H. Princess Stéphanie of Monaco) and a charity auction hosted by Club Vivanova founder Bradley Mitton, the highlight of which will be an incredible painting of Princess Grace and Prince Rainer.
UK-based High on Heels will entertain during the evening with three fabulous sets, that will build up to a sensational after-party, with dancing. The evening is filled with dynamic networking opportunities.
There will be a special introduction by Pierre Louis Renou, Managing Director of Fairmont Monte Carlo and Regional VP Accor Luxury Hotels, an environmental introduction by Christian Moore, partnership advisor to the Borneo Wildlife Preservation and a presentation by Valerie Barilaro, President of Ecoute Cancer Réconfort.
Over the last eight editions, this event has raised over €300,000 for charity and so this is a great way to enjoy dynamic networking whilst helping those in need. The event is partnered with the International University of Monaco and a number of other organisations – more at this link.
Monaco resident and Club Vivanova founder Bradley Mitton states: "We only achieve great things in life by giving back and our annual gala is organised to appreciate the best things in life whilst offering attendees the chance to donate to worthy, local and life-changing charities. Our selected charities need our support, and we’re grouping together to do something really positive, it’s fantastic!"

Tamas L’Orant
Tamás Lóránt is talented craftsman who has discovered a unique way to repurpose vintage timepieces and preserve family heritage while doing so. By first adapting his great-grandfather's gold pocket watch, he not only created a wristwatch of rare beauty, he established a brand which is now sought after globally.
What is unique? Like ‘iconic’ or ‘exclusive’, it’s a word that is losing its meaning. Every fashion item is ‘exclusive’. Every car ‘iconic’. Every watch ‘unique’. And yet its not.
But Tamás Lóránt has a different concept of unique and his creations make every piece literally irreplaceable.
LABAILS
Alexandre Labails discovered the world of watchmaking relatively late in 2016 at the age of 25. However, it was a discovery impossible to ignore as it resonated in him. A strong enough resonance to make him quit everything less than one year later to begin the incredible journey of building his own brand.
WatchPro Riviera is one of the first premiere’s of this incredible new Haute Horology brand, which will feature a low-frequency tourbillon, a high-frequency chronograph and an innovative, patent-pending exclusive energy management optimization system for watches with complications.
Temerity by LABAILS is an extraordinary timepiece. The tremendous complexities of the movement and the sapphire case generate an extremely difficult and long production process, which requires the deployment of the best watchmaking expertise throughout the process. Therefore, only 10 pieces will be produced and only upon request.
Jaquet Droz
Founded in 1738, Fine Watchmakers Jaquet Droz perpetuate the ethos of the Atelier’s founder Pierre Jaquet-Droz: forward-looking aesthetic refinement. Pierre Jaquet-Droz’s clocks, automatons and animated human figures were a cultural and mechanical revolution in their day.
Buoyed by its new strategy (‘JD 8.0: A Disruptive Legacy’) and the global acclaim for its Ateliers d’Art models, the Maison is further developing its ambitious vision of bespoke, animated High Horology, bringing together outstanding movements and new-generation materials to deliver a unique and highly personal experience. Each unique piece is created by and for a specific collector.
Jaquet Droz has been part of the iconic Only Watch from its inception and this year is no different. The 2023 edition is based around the colourful world of children at play, brought to life by the mechanical wonders of the Rolling Stones Automaton.
