Treasure Trove

The high-tech storage center known as RoboVault is embarking on a business strategy that mirrors the growing arts scene in South Florida.

Jessica Ransom, the newly hired Business Development Manager of Fine Art Services, has extensive experience with art consultation and appraisals. She will use her contacts within the art world to draw attention to RoboVault’s museum quality fine art services.

Located just minutes from Fort Lauderdale International Airport, RoboVault is an ultra secure, climate-controlled storage facility that houses fine art, antiques, collectables, exotic cars, fine furnishings, wine and more.

In recent years, the art scene in South Florida has been coming into its own. Events like Art Basel has put Miami on the map for art collectors internationally, which has made the Fine Arts department at RoboVault more important than ever.

Ransom is fluent in Mandarin Chinese, which opens up endless possibilities in regards to the growing number of art collectors in China. Being able to establish a relationship with those in the growing Chinese art world could prove to be key in developing RoboVault’s business.

Beyond art storage and preservation, Jessica sees RoboVault’s transport services as a huge asset to its clients. She says, in her experience, being able to safely transport an item is just as, if not more important, than proper storage.

Jessica intends on working closely with Bruce Tang, the Director of Shipping and Fine Art Services at RoboVault to ensure that clients are not only confident that their high-priced belongings are safe at RoboVault, but equally so, when they are not.

The true success for the company, however, goes far beyond the biometric fingerprint scanning, photoelectric beams or motion and heat detectors. Both Ransom and Susan McGregor, President and General Manager of RoboVault, agree that the focus is and always will be, about building and maintaining trusting relationships with current and perspective clients.

It is one thing to know that your prized possessions are safe because of impeccable building and security standards, but having a rapport with those responsible for the safe keeping of those items is invaluable. ?

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
