Luxury in the Arena: LVMH’s Historic €150 Million Investment in the 2024 Olympics The economic benefits of hosting the Olympics and major sporting events are well understood, so how does luxury interact with sporting events? One of the leading examples bringing focus to this issue today is the significant investment LVMH has committed to the upcoming 2024 Olympics: a jaw-dropping 150 million euros. This figure is already impressive, even for Bernard Arnault, one of the wealthiest people in the world. This is a strategic plan, with the expectation that the amount will double, if not triple, under Arnault's business acumen. Check our the full article: https://lnkd.in/gSEi_54s

Switzerland’s watch fair rivalries are set to continue as two of Geneva Watch Days’ founding members — Bulgari and BREITLING — voiced their commitment to continuing the late-summer event, shutting down rumours that they would defect to the larger Watches and Wonders fair next year. The Swiss watch fair landscape has been redrawn in recent years: Following the collapse of Baselworld during the pandemic, Watches and Wonders (Switzerland’s biggest fair, formerly known as SIHH) has sought to consolidate its position as the main gathering for brands, dealers, and collectors. But in addition to some major brands continuing to back Geneva Watch Days, alternative watch gatherings both in Switzerland and abroad have proliferated, suggesting that the industry’s calendar is being durably transformed. The watch fair rivalry, as well as the growing number of smaller fairs and events outside Switzerland, show how the Swiss industry — which for decades moved more-or-less in lockstep to help hard luxury conquer new markets around the globe — is becoming more fiercely competitive as brands fight for market share. Last week, Rolex acquired a major Swiss-based multi-brand dealer, Bucherer, as the turf war for retail locations and the marketing spotlight continue to heat up.

The race was marked by challenging weather conditions, with rain making the narrow, twisty streets of Monaco even more treacherous. Schumacher's ability to navigate these difficult conditions showcased his extraordinary talent. He built a significant lead over the rest of the field, managing his pace and tires effectively to maintain his advantage throughout the race. #Schumacher's strategic brilliance was also evident in his tire choices and pit stops. His team made the right calls at the right times, allowing him to stay ahead while others struggled or made costly errors. The race saw numerous incidents and retirements due to the slippery track, but Schumacher remained focused and controlled. We miss you, Michael! Go Ferrari for the race ! #GrandPrixMonaco #F1

🌟 The Belgian Bag: A Tale of Dedication, Ingenuity, and Client Service 🌟 -In 2009, representing Canadian Hurdler Pricilla Lopes-Schliep during the Wanda Diamond League Series in Brussels, our journey took an unexpected turn, blending dedication and a touch of Jason Bourne ingenuity. -As the season's finale approached, the event hotel; Sheraton Brussels had run out of ice - a crucial resource for athletes looking to recover with an ice bath after a hard workout. -Undeterred, I embarked on a mission. Purchasing four reusable bags from Delhaize Belgium grocery store, I donned my metaphorical Jason Bourne skills and set out to nearby hotels within 1 mile from our hotel. I navigated the premises with precision, avoiding security to fill each bag with the precious resource. -Wobbling back to the Sheraton, bags in hand, sweating profusely and battling lactic acid in my arms and legs I brought the jewels (ice) to Priscilla's room, providing her with the last ice bath of her 2009 season. -This covert operation turned out to be a game-changer. Priscilla not only won the race, becoming the first Diamond League champion, solidifying her position as world #1 while setting a personal best, but also helped to secure the title of Canadian Athlete of the Year. -To this day, I still have two of the reusable bags. They serve as a tangible reminder that regardless of our roles, none of us are too big or too small to make an impact in someone else's life. Sometimes, a touch of ingenuity and dedication can make all the difference. -It's a symbol of the extraordinary lengths we go to for our clients, and the positive impact that creative problem-solving can have. #sportsbiz #sportsbusiness #sportsmarketing #leadership #clientlove #toronto #canada World Athletics

🌟 Celebrating a Legacy of Excellence and Resilience 🌟 At Turning Point Retail Solutions, we draw inspiration from partnerships that transcend the ordinary, embodying a fusion of talent, resilience, and unwavering commitment. A shining example of such a partnership is the enduring alliance between Rolex and golf legend Tiger Woods. ROLEX, a name synonymous with precision and elegance, has championed the spirit of golf well before the emergence of Tiger Woods. Yet, it was their association with Woods that elevated this partnership to iconic status. Woods, with his unparalleled talent and passion for golf, perfectly encapsulates the values that Rolex admires in its ambassadors. What makes this relationship truly remarkable is Rolex's steadfast support for Woods through both his zeniths and nadirs. The brand's loyalty during Woods' challenging times highlights a profound belief in standing by true talent, reflecting a commitment that goes beyond mere achievements. At Turning Point Retail [www.turningpointretail.com], a leading luxury retail consulting firm in Cambodia, we understand the power of such enduring alliances. Our approach is inspired by the notion that true partnerships are built on mutual respect, shared values, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. As we continue to advise and support luxury brands in navigating the dynamic retail landscape, we look to examples like the Rolex-Tiger Woods partnership as a guiding light. It's a testament to the fact that when brands and individuals come together, united by a common passion and a shared vision, they can weather any storm and emerge stronger. Let's celebrate the spirit of enduring partnerships and the timeless lessons they teach us about resilience, loyalty, and the pursuit of excellence. #TurningPointRetail #LuxuryRetail #Partnerships #Excellence #Resilience
