The document discusses luxury brands and how they are defined. It notes that luxury is a subjective concept often defined by exclusivity, indulgence, higher prices, and catering to desire. Luxury allows people to express themselves and their taste or status. True luxury brands are traditionally anchored by heritage and integrity, though newer brands can establish luxury through personalized experiences and ethics. Luxury brands must balance innovation with protecting their exclusive image to avoid debasement.

To be culturally relevant today means knowing how to speak the new language of gender. Constantly in-flux, the way we talk about gender is fluid, just like we are. In The New Language of Gender, we help you understand and speak naturally from this quickly changing lexicon.
The Future of Humanity
Through our interaction with machines, we develop emotional, human expectations of them. Alexa, for example, comes alive when we speak with it. AI is and will be a representation of its cultural context, the values and ethics we apply to one another as humans.
This machinery is eerily familiar as it mirrors us, and eventually becomes even smarter than us mere mortals. Weâre programming its advantages based on how we see ourselves and the world around us, and weâre doing this at an incredible pace. This shift is pervading culture from our perceptions of beauty and aesthetics to how we interact with one another â and our AI.
Infused with technology, weâre asking: what does it means to be human?
Our report examines:
⢠The evolution of our empathy from humans to animals and robots
⢠How we treat AI in its infancy like we do a child, allowing it space to grow
⢠The spectrum of our emotional comfort in a world embracing AI
⢠The cultural contexts fueling AI biases, such as gender stereotypes, that drive the direction of AI
⢠How we place an innate trust in machines, more than we do one another
Methodology
For this report, sparks & honey conducted US-focused research on the future of AI. Together with Heartbeat AI Technologies, we examined the emotional sentiment (feeling and emotions) around artificial intelligence in a Heartbeat AI Pulse Survey of 150 people in the US. Tapping into our Influencer Advisory Board and proprietary cultural intelligence system, we combed through thousands of signals to build a vision of the future of AI. We also interviewed leading experts in the field of artificial intelligence.
The World Wealth Report 2015 infographic explores the wealth, population and asset allocation of global high net worth individuals (HNWIs). The global population of high net worth individuals and their wealth hit new highs as almost 1 million joined HNWI ranks. Asia-Pacific overtook North America HNWI population by a slim margin and is expected to take the lead in global HNWI wealth by end of 2015. China and the U.S. drove 52% of global HNWI population growth. Learn more about the World Wealth Report 2015 from Capgemini and RBC Wealth Management at http://www.worldwealthreport.com.

Imagine a future where you donât have to think about money. Got it? Well youâre probably thinking about it the wrong way. Because today, right now, money isnât real.
That bill you can hold in your hand is simply a representation of a transaction about to take place, completely dependent upon our belief that it has a value. We believe wholeheartedly that a piece of paper can be exchanged for a cup of coffee or a microwave oven. But, when we strip away our dependence on this concept of âmoneyâ, and the physicality of its exchange, what remains in the pure transaction. A transaction of value.
This report unpacks how our very concept of money is evolving, and describes how the system designed to manage its movement is ripe for disruption. This shift will create immediate opportunities for brands to connect with consumers as not only participants, but partners in modern culture.
Our report examines:
⢠The concept of value beyond traditional financial notions
⢠How value hinges upon trust, and the way trust is driving disruption
⢠Tech startups and small group communities working together to challenge the way weâre paying for our lives
⢠Peer to peer exchanges, dying middlemen and algorithmic security
⢠New asset classes and a working vision of the Internet of Things
49 pp., 23 illustrations
Our report points to the near future, where every person, place, and thing has a measurable value that can be exchanged intangibly, rapidly, securely, and most importantly, directly. Itâs a system where abstract notions like social currency have a value that can be transacted in the same way that we now buy a cup of coffee. Itâs a system that can empower a planet where every single device, every head of lettuce, every drop of fuel, every road and cable that make up our infrastructure have a value not only in and of itself, but also in the context of its use.
Meet your new value system, or the future of money. UnMoney.
Methodology
For this report, sparks & honey conducted research and interviewed experts at DevCon1 in London (2015) and the Scaling Bitcoin Workshop in Hong Kong (2015). Using new social listening tools, we gauged public sentiment around the disruption of established currencies and financial systems. And tapping into our global scout network and proprietary cultural intelligence system, we combed through thousands of signals to build a vision of the future of value in an unmonied world.
To help the curious class stay relevant, weâve assembled an A-Z glossary of what we predict to be the 100 must-know terms and concepts for 2017.
We hope this cultural crib sheet will help prepare you for the year ahead.
Enjoy!

Luxury - Finding Your Train Ticket - 2015Youcef Dridi
Â
Luxury branding is not about getting you to chose a brand over the competition. Itâs about getting you to see the brand as the only solution to your desire...
Everlasting luxury is the very seed of luxury as we know it today and in which the evolution of the customer and market has generated a whole series of open-ended questions.
What are the implications of this change on the management of luxury products and services? Do the existing marketing tools still apply? And how does one go about founding and preserving a luxury brand? To this end this research sets out to investigate further and establish the boundaries of everlasting luxury, proposing possible answers to these questions.
Marketing luxury is a paradox. Luxury defies econometric models. Though the processes by which consumers acquire and consume luxury remain an enigma, luxury brand names and products are highly visible in the marketplace. This slide deck empirically explores the luxury sector, the status of international luxury brands, and how luxury is branded and sold to consumers.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
Â
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

4. A subjective and universal concept, to which we can easily
attach attributes:
ExclusivityIndulgence
4
How we begin to define luxury
Freedom of choice and having the time to invest in these decisions
can be the base indication of how an individual experiences luxury
Ultimately, Luxury can be defined as:
⢠Always ânon-essentialâ
⢠A relatively âhigher price tagâ
⢠Catering to âthe realm of desireâ
OpulenceQuality
5. Luxury is a transformative instrument to express and affirm:
âŚto hone and explore a unique version of yourself
âŚto comply with the norms of your social set OR to assert
leadership of those norms
âŚto evolve and demonstrate knowledge
âŚto achieve a sense of absolute individuality and absolute
belonging
5
Luxury, self-expression and personal taste
Luxury allows people to curate â and control â how you see yourself
to be and how others perceive you
Status Taste Exclusivity Knowledge Personality
6. âTrue luxuryâ has traditionally been anchored by a brandâs
heritage and integrity
However, in emergent categories and for newer entrants to
established ones, other credentials can provide access to this
realm:
Who will be the luxury brands of the future?
Personalised
experience
Ethics
6
Critically, luxury brands need to claim their category quickly, to set a
standard and establish their legacy
What makes a true luxury brand today?
Uniqueness
Innovation
7. Protected by its heritage and exclusive status, the luxury
brand can flex its superior creativity and innovativeness
⢠Permission to âflirtâ with transient, fashionable trends
⢠Careful collaborations has the power to showcase a brandâs
vision, intuition, wit and foresight
⢠Vital to choose a suitable avatar for the brandâs
core values
7
However, ill-matched collaborations can be confusing and
ultimately damaging
From a nucleus of stable values, the more peripheral and ephemeral
elements of the brand have permission to play
Luxury and contemporary cultures: borrowing,
becoming, being
8. âBe careful what you wish forâ
âYou can have too much of a good thingâ
âItâs the destination, not the journeyâ
If people are given access to their âheartâs desireâ too readily, the
illusion of exclusivity is shattered
8
The danger of fantasy fulfilment
True luxury brands must maintain a cycle of both fuelling and fulfilling
our aspirations
9. Over exposure, diversification and expansion of audience
put a brand at risk of discrediting its âluxuryâ credentials
Protection and cultivation of exclusive audience
⢠Not a commodity â stands for much more than a logo
⢠Little interest in expanding for short term commerciality
⢠Curates intimate and discreet two-way relationships
⢠Offer of unique, one-off experiences
Diversification and overexposure
⢠Luxury is inherently snobby â allowing the âwrongâ
people access
⢠Logo shifts from internal to external identifier
⢠Excessive expansion into sub-brands
⢠Have a larger commercial footprint
9
Protection from Debasement
Luxury brands are not inherently protected from debasement, by
their price-tag â they must work to protect themselves
V.s.
10. The online world is an increasingly challenging space in which to
maintain a brandâs integrity, and manage its clientele
HoweverâŚ
- A source of inspiration and new information
- Connects audiences to one another and experiences
- Appeals to a generation of impulse buyers and fuels appetites
- Digital can enact a highly personal shopping experience
10
Digital and Luxury
Digital is a stage on which luxury brands in todayâs world must play â
but this must be done with discretion and creativity
Online is the antithesis of the âeffortâ and âexclusivityâ
which are hallmarks of luxury experiences
