Authentic Luxury – How to be relevant and develop new markets
This Isn’t A New Consumer, It’s A New Mindset
This is the most multicultural consumer demographic the world has ever seen. To capture that consumer the luxury industry has to understand how to resonate with the new luxury customer behaviour and navigate an
entirely new landscape. This talk explores how the consumer mindset has shifted in ways that the luxury industry can no longer afford to ignore.
