The Global Influence Series - KPMG

The 1st edition of the Global Influence Series took place on Tuesday, January 20, at the KPMG Hong Kong office, organised by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong and Macao, supported by the Italian Quality Lifestyle Council.

Opening speech by Jacopo Pesavento (Branding Records), followed by keynotes from Anson Bailey (KPMG) & Anna Lin (GS1 Hong Kong) on Beyond Retail in the Age of AI, exploring how tech drives experiential retail while human emotion builds trust.

Our powerhouse panel, Alessandro Ficco (Molteni&C), Alexander Li (Hongkong Land), Anson Bailey (KPMG), Emma Chen (Tmall Global), moderated by Marco Galimberti (Venchi), unpacked luxury's future: seamless retail-hospitality experiences, China's cross-border e-commerce mastery, and AI-enhanced discovery.

Heartfelt thanks to our brilliant speakers & moderator, KPMG for hosting, and everyone for the vibrant discussions!
