Summary

2020 Dinner

Luxury retail has always required a delicate approach. Brands are obliged to dote on their customers, offering not only quality but exclusivity, and an efficacious brand narrative have never been more important.

To aid discovery, storytelling and in-store theatre now play a pivotal role in showcasing the craftsmanship of products and demonstrating that luxury can also evolve with the times. With millennials now more willing to splash the cash on sought-after higher end items, it’s important to not ignore this slice of the demographic, whilst continuing to treat the traditional customer as the VIP they are.

Our Leading in Luxury dinner invited industry leaders to re-examine the luxury buyer profile and target new segments. Attendees did this throughout the evening whilst considering how to create innovative and memorable experiences throughout the buying cycle.
