On the Sunday of Milan Fashion Week spring/summer 2024, executives from across the luxury industry took part in a discussion on ‘Gender Equity and the Next Generation of Talent in Luxury’ at the Bulgari Hotel in the heart of Milan. The group explored issues facing female-identifying representatives in the C-suite and the needs of sponsorship in the workplace.

The event was co-hosted by Imran Amed, founder and CEO of BoF and Laura Burdese, marketing and communication vice president of Roman high jewellery maison Bulgari.
