Luxury is evolving—and so are the expectations of its clientele. Join the industry’s most influential voices at the EHL Experiential Luxury Forum, where tradition meets transformation.

This exclusive afternoon event explores how iconic luxury brands are moving beyond retail and redefining hospitality —from the rise of member‑only social clubs that cultivate exclusivity, through high‑end gastronomy reimagined as a 360‑degree sensory journey, to the new era of hyper‑personalized conciergerie powered by Grand Vendeurs, Personal Shoppers, and VVIC Sales Advisors.

 

Held at the prestigious EHL Lausanne Campus, the forum gathers C-suite leaders and global innovators in an intimate setting, designed for meaningful conversation and high-value connections.

Maria Carla Liuni is the Chief Brand Officer of Ferrari, a role she has held since September 2022. She leads Ferrari’s Lifestyle pillar—one of the three strategic areas of the business alongside Sportscars and Racing. This division’s mission is to further establish Ferrari as a global luxury brand, enhancing its desirability and cultural relevance for today’s generation and the future, across every aspect of modern lifestyle. Carla’s mandate is to guide the development and growth of this business, ensuring strategic expansion and consistent brand elevation in all arenas where Ferrari is present.

Carla brings to Ferrari a wealth of international experience across some of the world’s most prestigious luxury and consumer goods companies.

She spent nearly 20 years at Procter & Gamble, where she rose to become Global General Manager of the Prestige Division. In this role she oversaw fragrance, make-up, and skincare brands including Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Hugo Boss, and Lacoste, while holding positions in multiple countries. She led marketing, communication, and product development globally, and as Regional Leader for Asia-Pacific, worked closely with fashion houses to expand their reach and desirability.
