INTRODUCTIONWe are very proud to be celebrating the “26th Anniversary of ESSEC’s Global MBA in Luxury Brand Management in 2021”.As the first full time 1 year MBA Program in Luxury Brand Management in English to be launched in the world in 1995, the program was initially greeted with scepticism by a public unaccustomed to industry orientated MBA’s. Today, we are ranked amongst the top worldwide and thanks to the support of the sectors major players, and our triple accreditation, (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA) not only have we maintained our supremacy but we have become a reference for the global luxury industry with many of our graduates now holding key positions worldwide.

For those of you who may have missed a chapter of our history, in September 2017 the MBA in International Luxury Brand Management changed format, joined forces with ESSEC’s MBA in Strategy and Management and was renamed Global MBA with Major in Luxury Brand Management.

The wide choice of luxury specialized classes remains exactly the same, as does the mentor program, luxury conferences, virtual field trips, boutique internships and field projects which make our program so unique. In addition to this advanced specialized content, participants of the program can now also benefit from an enhanced core curriculum emphasizing macroeconomics, the crucial role of innovation, digital transformation, financial skills and complexity management. And new this year : Power BI, google analytics, blockchain, specific courses on sustainability and hip-hop culture.

As opposed to competing MBA programs offering a less concentrated luxury specialization, our newly formatted GMBA in Luxury Brand Management continues to allow our participants to benefit from a deep-dive into the management of luxury brands whilst also enhancing their leadership, managerial and digital skills.

The program continues to attract participants from all over the world with an average of 7 years international professional experience who are provided with highly concentrated and intensive exposure to fashion & accessories, jewellery and watches, fragrances and cosmetics, wines and spirits and retail.

The MBA Program also provides ongoing career orientation and support to participants to help them find suitable positions upon graduation. Individual counselling, seminars on job search techniques, interview simulation exercises, recruitment sessions and CV Book distribution are some of the ways we assist participants and keep them in contact with job market realities which have been heavily affected by the pandemic. This being said, we see positive signs of improvement on the horizon accross the globe and encourage you to connect with our «soon to be graduates» for any upcoming opportunities you may have.

Please feel free to directly contact those participants whose profile may be of specific interest to you.

The CV book is also available on www.essec.edu under Global MBA in Luxury Brand Management.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE MBA PROGRAMThe Global MBA in Luxury Brand Management program is a one-year intensive program, delivered in English at the ESSEC Campus, on the outskirts of Paris.

It is structured to provide maximum exposure to the luxury and prestige goods industry.In addition to the studies and projects focusing on the sector, participants also gain practical experience and in-depth knowledge of the industry through Boutique Internships, International «Virtual and In Person» Field Trips, and Global Field Projects.

Boutique InternshipsThe luxury and prestige sector is one where retail is the ultimate battleground. Therefore all MBA participants spend at least 1 week working in a boutique. At the end of the internship, MBA participants write an evaluation report which is shared with the host companies.

International Field TripsThree virtual field trips are organized to major international destinations, which either have an established luxury sector or have an emerging market in the luxury sector. Through company presentations and site visits, MBA participants are able to better understand these markets and gain a deeper insight into the company from an international perspective. Field trips this year are virtual to Shanghai and New York, and In Person to Milan and Florence.

Global Field ProjectsParticipants are required to carry out specific consultancy projects for luxury and prestige companies to give them maximum exposure to real life situations within the industry. The Global Field Project is carried out in teams of 3/4 between May and September. It concerns a business issue within a company (for example, business plan for a new activity, feasibility study for activity expansion abroad) and is monitored by an MBA Professor and by a company executive.
