Leaders of Luxury 2025

Aspire’s flagship conference Leaders of Luxury will return this summer with a raft of insightful speakers set to take to the stage.

The event will once again be held at Bafta in London’s Piccadilly on June 12, in partnership with headline sponsor Explora Journeys.

Launched in 2017, Leaders of Luxury addresses the key influences shaping high-end travel and the wider luxury sector. The invite-only event brings together more than 250 of the most senior and influential figures in the industry. 

Each year, Leaders of Luxury looks at the key trends and developments in the luxury travel space, while also inviting speakers from outside the sector to share their knowledge and expertise.

This year’s event will include discussions on the state of the market; how agents can tap into the growing segment of special interest travel; the pressing demands of CSR on luxury travel brands; and how to build loyalty among high-net-worth consumers. The event will also include a deep dive into how high-end travel companies are harnessing AI as well as a keynote session on the intersection of luxury, accessible and adventure travel and how to start on the road to inclusion.

Supporting sponsors include Grecotel, Kerzner International, Sani/Ikos Group, Tourism New Zealand and Wavemaker Hospitality.
