The Conversation

MARKA London explores the ideas, people and cultural shifts influencing the way we design, live, choose, consume and experience contemporary luxury.

Through a curated series of conversations, the Capsule Edition will move across design, art, lifestyle, sustainability and cultural influence; from creativity and craftsmanship to changing notions of luxury, contemporary culture and the forces shaping what comes next.

Who Should Attend

MARKA London is conceived for leaders of the luxury industry, creative leaders, cultural tastemakers and influential minds shaping the worlds of design, architecture, fashion, lifestyle, culture and business.

A gathering for those who value original thinking, exceptional creativity and meaningful connections and who are curious about the ideas and cultural shifts shaping what comes next.
