Arpita Das
The Conference hada very interesting session on relationship between brands and salons- discussing both sides of the game . This is an exciting relationship and new challenges will exist, but as partners we have to understand each other and it’s a win-win situation.
Ankit Virmani
The experience at the Conference was very enriching. The way the session was curated and the topic chosen makes it very interesting. The main part of my session was to define premiumization, address why it is important and how to get to the level of premiumization without overspending or getting distracted.
