🌍✨ A New Era for Luxury: Leading the Charge Towards Circularity! 🌿♻️ Exciting developments in the luxury sector as CHANEL , LVMH , and Kering intensify their commitment to #circular practices! 🚀 The recent appointment of Sophie B. to lead Chanel’s new division focused on #circularity marks a pivotal moment. By embracing circular design, material regeneration, and optimizing value chains, these industry leaders are setting a new standard in the consumer landscape. 👏 In 2024, the global luxury goods market is projected to reach approximately €1.5 trillion, reflecting an 8-10% growth over 2023. (Source: https://lnkd.in/e7d9FyTx ) The fashion industry, a significant segment of the luxury market, accounts for about 4% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, equating to 2.1 billion metric tons annually. (Source: https://lnkd.in/d-tYu36 ) Implementing circular practices—such as regenerative materials, closed-loop systems, and carbon-negative value chains—can substantially reduce the environmental footprint of the luxury sector. For instance, adopting these strategies could decrease the fashion industry's emissions by up to 50% by 2030. (Source: https://lnkd.in/d-tYu36 ) At Spin Ventures , we share this vision. Through our House of Circularity platform, we drive non-extractive solutions that enhance operational efficiencies and create new revenue streams. 🌱 We actively partner with forward-thinking corporations to implement closed-loop systems and transformative technologies that unlock measurable, profitable change. The alignment of Chanel, LVMH, and Kering’s strategies with our focus on resource optimization and value chain transformation signifies a significant shift in achieving impactful results in the consumer sector. 🌐🤝 Here’s to more brands joining this movement, investing in technologies that drive both financial returns and positive environmental impact. The future of luxury lies in regenerative design and creating value through circular models! 💚🔄 Read more about Chanel’s latest initiatives here: https://lnkd.in/erZBGk2C and now, let's go and spin the world! #LuxuryInnovation #HouseOfCircularity #RegenerativeMaterials #SpinVentures #ClimateTech #ValueChainTransformation #Chanel #LVMH #Kering #ImpactfulInvestments #FutureOfFashion #ClosedLoopSystems

The second instalment of my 'Made in Italy' series is now live on Vogue Business ! Today, I unpack the fears and concerns around incoming sustainability regulations... Suppliers say they are drowning in paperwork and audits, with little to no support from brands to invest in the machinery, software and upskilling needed to comply. With deadlines looming, a dramatic shift in the brand-supplier dynamic is needed.
