#53: From Cartier to Private Equity. With Eliott Collin

I am Carlo Pignataro, and this is a new episode of Lux and
Friends. Luxury, as an industry, has many faces. When thinking of
luxury, some people portray in their mind fashion, others
jewelry. For some, it's all about exclusive experiences; others
are into art, or the finest wines and spirits. Many products,
services, and categories belong to luxury, and yet only a few
professionals have managed to navigate this vast and fascinating
territory in its various dimensions. My guest today did just
that. Previously at the helm of the high-end jewelry division of
legendary brands like Cartier and Dior, Eliott Collin, a man of
superb taste and vast experience, has shared with me in this
interview a behind-the-scenes worth listening to. And he's
brought me to one of the most secret, inaccessible, and exclusive
luxury frontiers: private equity.
