28 minutes

How can traditional hotels fight back against the sharing economy juggernaut? We meet Caitlin Zaino, founder of Porter & Sail, a start-up whose secret weapon involves a dash of the high-tech and the charm and knowledge of an old-school concierge. We also sit down with the managing director of St Barths-based Sereno Hotels, who explains why the company is expanding to Lake Como. Plus: Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.i.am tells us why musicians make natural entrepreneurs and Winkreative’s Raphael Güller asks whether sex really does sell.
