Fashion-tech

Whilst the interplay between fashion and technology may be in the news with today's opening of the New York exhibition Manus x Machina: Fashion in the Age of  Technology,  the Luxury Law Summit also looks at how luxury companies can enhance online brand protection strategies by turning consumers into allies through a case study on Versace. Growth through acquisition is also on the agenda with Barrack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg speaking on the importance of IP due diligence when acquiring luxury brands. Dealmaker Robert Ferrell will discuss his role in seminal fashion collaborations whilst Italian law firm Jacobacci will shed light on the growth of art and luxury collaborations and why luxury companies see value in going down this route.
