Oliver spent a 30 year career building a one-man business into a small multinational, with 13 offices across 9 countries, before selling up in 2014. To achieve that meant a lot of international business travel – really a lot, as from 2000 to 2015 he was away from home for an average of 200 nights a year, flying an average of 250,000 miles a year. He’s still traveling almost as much. So, as a true air warrior, he knows a lot about business travel. He’s now turned author, and put some of his crazier experiences into a new book, “There’s No Business Like International Business”.
