History

Aspire Lifestyles has been providing award-winning Concierge service for nearly 30 years and pioneered the industry as it is known today.

With such leading innovations as offering the first Concierge website and mobile app and winning the coveted APAC Wealth Management Leading Concierge Provider Awards, we are the benchmark that other providers aspire to (as our name suggests).

Initially developed as an loyalty services offering within International SOS, the world’s leading medical and security risk services company, the business continued to grow into a dedicated offering and standalone business that was rebranded “Aspire Lifestyles” in 2013.

In response to market demand for global capabilities, Aspire Lifestyles expanded its reach with launches in Japan, Mexico, and Turkey in the past five years.

Today, Aspire Lifestyles employs more than 1,500 people globally, across our 25 centers in 21 countries around the world.  We have the largest directly owned-and-managed Concierge and loyalty solutions footprint in the world.

Aspire Lifestyles is an International SOS company.

How it All Began

In 2013, International SOS announced the launch of an exciting new brand: Aspire Lifestyles, which was the highly anticipated strategic merger of several of the world’s premier loyalty, Concierge and assistance solutions providers: International SOS’s Worldwide Enhancement business, VIPdesk (USA and UK) and EMSM (Korea).

Six years later, Aspire Lifestyles continues to draw upon the collective strength of nearly 35 years of loyalty, Concierge and assistance heritage. Aspire Lifestyles has been providing its clients with richly customized services, powered by unmatched technology and delivered by an experienced team of 1,500 employees, who speak more than 30 languages and deliver around-the-clock service at our 25 Concierge Centers in 21 countries around the world.
