Dear BoF Community,
Against a backdrop of shifting customer preferences and structural change, industry growth is slowing in Western Europe, North America and China. Now, it is more important than ever for fashion, beauty and luxury leaders to immerse themselves in understanding the dynamic, fast-growing markets in the Global South.
Today, we are pleased to announce BoF CROSSROADS, our new invitation-only gathering of top business and creative leaders focused on seizing the business opportunities in the Middle East, Central and South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa and Latin America.
For our inaugural event, we will be gathering at the One&Only One Za’abeel Hotel in Dubai from April 10-11, 2025, uniting leading thinkers, operators and investors from around the world to share market expertise and on-the-ground insights to help you navigate these markets and share learnings and insights on how to succeed.
Building on the success of our renowned BoF VOICES gathering, you can expect an itinerary brimming with inspiring content programming to spark new ideas and learning, as well as opportunities to build valuable relationships with leaders from around the world:
- Content sessions, rich in data and insights from leading players from across the Global South with five hours of high-quality programming
- Experiential activities and workshops immersing you into Dubai’s vibrant retail and cultural landscape
- Opportunities to build relationships with top leaders from around the world during curated dinners and lunches
With BoF Professional members based in more than 125 countries, we believe BoF is uniquely positioned to open, inform and connect our global community as the industry enters a critical new era of development in these frontier markets.
