Program Highlights: Luxury - Innovation - Sustainability
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?
Speakers: Over 30 speakers come from all aspects of the luxury industry and related service sectors. A few of them include: Alain-Dominique Perrin, Chabi Nouri, Coralie de Fontenay, Daniela Ott, Deependra Pandey, Dennis Paul, Enzo Rosani, Erik Van Thielen, Fabienne Fischer, François Richard, Giji Gya Obradovic, Josh Pullan, Martine Depresle, Max Kantelia, Mehdi Daoudi, Michala Chatel, Michele Casucci, Patrik Hoffmann, Pedro Lopez-Belmonte, Rudi Blatter, Serge Maillard, Stanislas de Quercize, Stéphane Haddad, Tirath Kamdar.
