Luxury Innovation Summit: it starts today!

Topics to be discussed at the Summit include:

Trends, Innovation, and Creativity

NFT, Metaverse, AI, VR, blockchain, endless new materials, and devices are in a constant state of upgrade: technology’s power over the luxury and fashion world gets stronger and stronger. How should the industry harness this, and how can brands best prepare for the future?

Sustainability and Circular Economy

How can the fashion and luxury industry do more in this space? How should the industry reconcile the seeming paradox of growing sales vs sustainability and environmental considerations? What does “sustainable” mean for an industry built on desire, consumption and constant change? And what can the luxury industry – from start-up to investor, big brand to boutique – do to help encourage more diversity within its ranks?

Private Equity and Venture Capital in luxury

The luxury goods sector is benefiting from a positive structural change. This theme will discuss opportunities for private and institutional investors to invest in luxury goods and related services. How can investment houses be better prepared to identify the investment targets – from venture capital to private equity?
