I find the right piece, not simply what is available.

From an off-market collector car or a difficult watch reference to a meaningful artwork or singular experience, I source around the individual rather than the catalogue. Every search begins with your taste, your priorities and the story you want the acquisition to tell.

I work independently and discreetly across an international network of collectors, dealers, galleries and specialists. The result is personal, thoroughly considered and often unavailable through conventional channels.

Collector cars

Modern icons, emerging classics and exceptional specifications, identified on and off market with discretion from first search to acquisition.

Fine watches

Rare references, discontinued models and important pieces sourced through trusted dealers, collectors and private networks.

Import & Export

European partner search, direct outreach and qualified business introductions for foreign companies entering new markets.

Art

Distinctive works, editions and introductions to artists and galleries, selected around your taste, space and collecting ambitions.

Lifestyle

Objects, places and experiences that are difficult to access and worth discovering, sourced with the same personal attention.

Coming soon

The right introduction can open an entire market.

I work on selected European market-entry, international business-development, partner-search and trade-mission mandates for companies and institutions.

Each assignment begins with a defined territory, commercial objective and counterpart profile. Focused research, decision-maker outreach and disciplined follow-through replace generic databases and indiscriminate introductions.

Alessio LAMAY CUBEDDU

I am an independent consultant based in Paris, working across private sourcing and international business development. In both fields, the work begins by understanding the brief and identifying the person, object or opportunity that genuinely fits it.

Thirteen years as a physical business owner and three years of research-led digital sourcing inform an approach built on direct communication, persistent investigation, discretion and commercial judgement.

Experience built through people

Thirteen years as the owner of a physical retail business taught me that exceptional service begins with understanding people. Listening, earning trust, negotiating thoughtfully and recognising what truly matters became part of my daily work.

For the past three years, I have brought that experience into a more international and research-led environment. Direct outreach, private introductions and detailed investigation allow me to locate opportunities beyond conventional channels.

My approach combines human understanding with persistent research. Every search is personal, discreet and carefully considered.
