Asego’s ‘Built & Beyond’ Explores Legacy and Leadership with Second-Generation Travel Entrepreneurs

Hosted by Founder & CEO Dev Karvat, the second episode examines family business transitions, individual identity and the future of travel.

Asego has released the second episode of its exclusive podcast, Built & Beyond, bringing together five second-generation travel entrepreneurs for a candid conversation on carrying forward family legacies while creating their own identities as business leaders.

Hosted by Dev Karvat, Founder & CEO, Asego, the episode features Anshul Shah, CEO, All 4 Season; Raj Khandwala, CEO, Cutting Edge; Rohan Jitubhai Kothari, Managing Director, SW Travels; Akhilesh Joshi, Director, Girikand Travels; and Bhagirath Prathi, CEO, Uniglobe Sri Sai Travel.

The discussion explores their entry into the travel industry and the experiences that shaped their journeys within family-run businesses. From stepping into leadership roles to earning the confidence of employees and customers, the guests examine the responsibilities that accompany an established business legacy.

A central theme is the pressure of expectations—balancing the aspirations of the previous generation with the need to develop an independent leadership style. The entrepreneurs also reflect on the values, traditions and business practices inherited from their parents that continue to guide their decisions.

The conversation considers how businesses can preserve these foundations while embracing fresh ideas and adapting to an evolving marketplace. Artificial intelligence and its implications for the future of travel also feature in the discussion, highlighting the need to respond to technological change.

By bringing these perspectives together, Built & Beyond offers travel professionals and emerging entrepreneurs an opportunity to explore the personal and business realities of generational leadership.

The full episode is now available on Asego’s YouTube channel.
