Class of 2016-17 "With two years’ experience leading a team in the digital automotive industry and a bachelor's degree in Fashion Brand Management & Marketing, this dual-degree in luxury was a logical step for me.   Courses have been challenging and enriching. It’s been refreshing to learn from professors with real work experience in the industry and beneficial to network with other professionals across each luxury sector.   Today, I’m working in Paris on digital marketing strategies with Shiseido in the luxury beauty industry thanks to the connections I made through SKEMA.   Not having a background in French is certainly the biggest challenge I've faced but it's not completely limiting to those who are driven to make it work.   None of this would have been possible without the Global Luxury & Management programme.
