The Financial Times Business of Luxury Summit returns in 2025 to explore the most influential trends and financial dynamics shaping the global luxury market. Key topics will include the spending patterns of ultra high-net-worth individuals, the impact of China’s economic stimulus efforts, and potential industry shifts in light of proposed U.S. tariffs.

Taking place from 18–20 May at Hotel Arts in Barcelona and online, the summit will feature a panel discussion titled “The real work of sustainability: How to build ethical supply chains,” where Textile Exchange CEO Claire Bergkamp will join other leaders to discuss how luxury brands can respond to increasing regulatory and consumer demands by building more ethical and transparent supply chains.
