BUSINESS CONTEXT:
The beauty industry is becoming increasingly competitive, with luxury brands expected to offer more distinctive, immersive and engaging brand experiences. As younger clients become more discerning across every brand touchpoint, strengthening brand equity and accelerating the recruitment of new, younger clients have become key business priorities. In this context, events play an increasingly critical role in creating meaningful client engagement and reinforcing brand leadership.

The number and scale of FBP events continue to grow significantly, including three major pop-up events, four campaign outposts/podiums, Travel Retail Airport Podiums, VVIP and Gaisho events, as well as an ephemeral pop-up space in Harajuku currently planned for 2027. This represents an estimated increase of approximately 30% versus 2025 and 20% versus 2026. To respond to this expanding scope and ensure strong execution of strategic event initiatives, the Studio Event team must be adequately equipped with the necessary headcount to support, coordinate and deliver these projects at the expected level of Brand excellence.
