Luxury Marketing Summit 2026: Win Back!
Join us in New York on Wednesday, May 13, 2026
The world's premier luxury marketing conference for luxury professionals across sectors

Why attend The luxury consumer, be it for luxury goods, services, real estate, hospitality or retail, needs to feel special in a time of economic and geopolitical upheaval. Affluent and wealthy consumers, particularly in the younger cohorts, have become more discerning in their purchases. They seek more authenticity in their experiences with luxury brands and luxury professionals. They also want to be part of the brand story.

Recent research has shown that luxury organizations are pampering their VICs (very important clients) even as the core customers in the middle claim they don't feel the love, and the aspirational base comes under pressure from market forces. Marketing now has to work doubly hard to connect brand with audience via resonating messaging, as well as generate desire, restore trust and build loyalty.

Focus This event will outline how luxury professionals and the brands they represent have to recalibrate their marketing, messaging, use of AI and delivery of experiences. The summit will also offer select brand spotlights, state of luxury marketing research, analyses on evolving consumer behavior, the latest on AI in marketing, and tips on new techniques and best practice.

Pre-Event Cocktail Reception on Tuesday, May 12 Howard Hanna will host and sponsor an elegant cocktail party at 111 West 57th Street, one of New York's most iconic luxury addresses on Billionaires' Row. The property affords spectacular views of the city, embodying the luxury ethos central to the brand.

Building a Community: How Chief Is Redefining Leadership for Women
HOW WE DO IT

For many women leaders, career growth is rarely linear – it’s shaped by reinvention, pressure, ambition and navigating rooms where expectations are constantly shifting. Chief was built for that reality. Through a trusted network of senior executive peers, coaching, curated experiences and leadership conversations shaping business and culture, Chief gives women leaders space to think bigger, navigate complexity and build influence in real time.

At a moment when leadership itself is being redefined – by AI, evolving workplace dynamics and changing ideas around power and success – Chief has become a place where women can connect more honestly, challenge conventional leadership models and help shape what comes next together. What role does community play in leadership today, and why are so many senior women leaders looking for spaces such as Chief right now?
