Claire Martin-Williamson (né Okrafo-Smart)
Founded by Claire, The Incentive House is the fulfilment of a life-long dream. an industry expert with experience in all areas of the hospitality industry, Claire is well travelled, highly connected and is always dreaming up new ideas and creating and designing new and inspiring programmes.
First and foremost a travel expert, she caught the travel bug when she set off for her first ski season in Switzerland over two decades ago and she has since delivered hundreds of successful events from the Cotswolds to Cuba and almost everywhere in between (well, in 55 countries anyway).
If you put Claire on the spot, some of the highlights from her events would include canoeing the Zambezi River in Zambia; chartering the Orient Express, from Bangkok to Chiang Mai in Thailand and from Cusco to Machu Picchu in Peru (where her group drank the bar car dry of Pisco Sours!). Hiring the Royal Sydney Opera House for an opera-themed gala dinner; cocktails in the Sistine Chapel and riding an Arabian horse across Wadi Rum in Jordan.
