    About the Program

    Graduates of this programme typically ascend to senior leadership roles within the global luxury sector, functioning as brand directors, customer experience leads, or strategic consultants. By bridging the gap between artistic vision and business performance, participants gain the agility to steer heritage houses and premium startups through the complexities of modern digital and sustainable transformation.

    The Executive Certificate Marketing Management & Design du Luxe is an intensive 18-day certification designed for experienced managers, entrepreneurs, and designers who aim to master the delicate balance between creative storytelling and commercial viability. Delivered in a hybrid format of strategic theory and hands-on design, the programme is distinct for its partnership with the École de Design Nantes and the inclusion of the 'Luxury Experience Lab,' where participants prototype innovative consumer journeys.

    A Strategic Intersection of Disciplines

    The curriculum is built on three core pillars:

    • Comprendre: Deciphering the shifting codes, business models, and desirability factors of the luxury ecosystem.
    • Concevoir: Mastering branding, semiotics, and immersive retail design to craft distinctive customer experiences.
    • Piloter: Applying rigorous financial, operational, and marketing metrics to ensure brand longevity and profitability.

    Participants emerge with a sharpened capacity to navigate the tension between tradition and disruptive innovation, equipped with the leadership tools necessary to manage high-value projects in an increasingly competitive and conscious global market.
