How should luxury-focused firms chart their course for 2022? Luxury Daily returns online Thursday, Jan. 13 with the 9th annual edition of Luxury FirstLook, focused on the outlook for the year ahead.
The overarching theme of the daylong event is the transformation, under the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic, of a business as it transitions to ecommerce proficiency in an omnichannel setting, shopping by values, big-brand dominance, generational shift and increasing reliance on Chinese consumers.
