CEOs and their legal teams are spending more time and resources dealing with increasing global threats to their brands. These can range from setting up in less regulated markets to digital strategy and IP issues. These and other risks can adversely impact even the best established luxury businesses.
To satisfy the overwhelming demand for more information, discussion and consultation, The Global Legal Post and The International Herald Tribune have announced the first the Luxury Law Summit for 23rd May 2013.
Focusing on the future of the luxury sector in the face of the difficult issues facing companies, The Luxury Law Summit will appeal to those who run the business from the CEOs and FDs to the general counsel and senior IP lawyers.
In an age of risk, companies have to balance expansion with managing risk.This event will look at how to manage both. Dealing with the macro and micro issues from the economy, the opportunities and risks of expansion into emerging markets and changing social, economic, technological and global conditions, delegates will hear the latest from global thought leaders in this fast growing sector.

Why Attend
With a 50% increase in the global turnover of luxury goods companies in the last 10 years, there is a rising awareness that many luxury goods companies, who used to have a perhaps unsophisticated business approach 10 years ago, now recognise the need to obtain astute legal advice on issues such as financial engineering, competition law, intellectual property rights and selective distribution.
The summit will map out the risks and challenges for companies across the premium brand business sectors. Speakers will include company founders, owners, CEOs, CMOS, In House Lawyers, selected law firms, heads of trademarks, regulators, economists and technology experts.
Who should attend
Attend the event if you have responsibility for developing and defending luxury brand properties around the globe: you will leave with a clearer idea of the potential and challenges of emerging markets, a more defined business development strategy and an improved understanding of how your legal team can work to make a difference to the success of your business.

The Luxury Law Summit will talk place at The Caledonian Club. Founded in 1891 the Club moved to 9 Halkin Street in 1946. The house at number 9 was the last mansion of its kind to be built in London, the elegant simplicity of the exterior is juxtaposed by its internal proportions and neo Georgian flair. A terrace garden was added in May 1994.
In 2006, a new four-storey wing was officially opened by HM The Queen, accompanied by HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.
