Discover an innovative and creative approach to the rapidly evolving luxury industry – exploring the characteristics and opportunities within luxury goods, events and services.
The first of its kind in the UK, this course covers a broad spectrum of businesses, from fashion to hospitality, automotive and travel. You’ll take a strategic, creative view of the opportunities available in the sector, and begin to generate a variety of innovative ideas – developing your entrepreneurial outlook and storytelling ability, and delivering unforgettable experiences in London’s luxury precincts.
You’ll learn to analyse and forecast trends, build business plans, manage and lead global teams, create a culture of innovation and creativity and launch successful businesses in mature and fast-developing markets – gaining the insights to make informed judgements about the strategic business activities of luxury brands and deliver exceptional customer experiences across different sectors to gain a competitive advantage.
You'll also have the opportunity to experience luxury in action, in London and beyond. Previously, students have attended luxury events and fashion shows, and experienced fine dining – all included in Regent's tuition fees.
In your final term, you’ll complete a dissertation or live business project: developing and presenting a new luxury business plan over a four-day period – delving into your design, customer research and finances.
This course is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) – allowing you to register for an additional professional qualification. Registering with the CMI gives you access to a range of opportunities, detailed below, and means (if successful) you’ll gain a Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Practice.
This can fast-track your professional development – helping you to quickly become a Chartered Manager (CMgr).
