You’ll also explore customer targeting and acquisition – learning to perform audience research, identify markets and leverage changing behaviours. Working on live projects with teams from real luxury brands, you'll discover how London’s most esteemed names attract and retain their premium clientele. Recently, students developed customer expansion strategies with Harrods and digital marketing campaigns with Boodles. Our exclusive partnership with Walpole, the UK’s official trade body for the luxury sector, provides unparalleled access to some of the UK’s best-known brands across a variety of sectors. You’ll have opportunities to attend seminars and workshops with esteemed industry leaders who offer fascinating perspectives on luxury.

Recent partners have included Estée Lauder Companies, Laurent Perrier and Fortnum & Mason. In your second term, you’ll also join an all-inclusive European study trip, where you’ll delve into the luxury sector overseas. Last year students visited Paris, where they: Explored the Moët & Chandon grounds Joined a private tour of the Lafayette Gallery Experienced a gala dinner on the Seine In your final term, you’ll complete a dissertation or live project, developing and presenting a new business plan or consultancy project over a four-day period.
