2018 - VENICE: Financial Times Luxury Summit
"Luxury Disruption - The industry's innovators are changing the narrative" - this was the thesis of the "Business of Luxury Summit", to which the Financial Times, with the support of WHITE Communications, invited guests to Venice from May 20 to 22. In which direction is the industry developing? How revolutionary will this change be? How are traditional houses keeping pace, and what can they do to stay ahead of industry innovators and remain competitive in the marketplace? It was the big questions about the opportunities and risks of disruptive change that occupied the participants. These included: What do Millennial luxury consumers actually want? How will their buying behavior be shaped by digitization? And how are they changing the face of retail and the market and media landscape? To this end, the FT Business Luxury Summit, directed by FT editor Lionel Barber, and fashion editor Jo Ellison, brings together leading decision-makers in the industry. Innovators and financiers debate at a high level about the latest developments/changes in luxury and what can be expected in the near future. And always with a view to the future and in the direction of constructive, groundbreaking solutions. For this very reason, it is always a special pleasure for us to be a partner of the Financial Times! Video rights: Financial Times https://live.ft.com/Events/2018/FT-Business-of-Luxury-Summit.
