The Positive Luxury Awards honour innovation in every aspect of ESG, celebrating leading organisations and driving a global conversation about the future of luxury.
The awards are unique in their focus on innovation in the luxury industry and they celebrate the full supply chain – from material suppliers and manufacturers, to brands and retailers. Judged by an independent panel of experts that includes Paul Polman, Susan McPherson and Omoyemi Akerele, the awards are an opportunity for organisations to be recognised for their commitment to positive action, celebrate their inspirational peers, and build their profile as a leader in sustainability. Previous award winners include Nadja Swarovski, Selfridges, and SALT Resorts.
The awards are open to all luxury brands, suppliers and retailers – not just Butterfly Mark certified businesses. For further information or support, please contact awards@positiveluxury.com
