🎬 In this episode — now out in English — I'm joined by Pauline Laigneau, founder of Gemmyo, the acclaimed luxury jewelry house that redefined the industry with the concept of "smart luxury."
Gemmyo is a rare diamond. The first jewelry house to launch entirely online, built on one clear promise: personalization. Pauline walks us through the fascinating story of a house that broke the codes of luxury and redefined an entire industry. How do you manufacture in France while keeping exceptional quality at a more accessible price? Could the answer lie in digital?
Pauline also embodies the French entrepreneurial spirit through her own podcast, which brings together a community of over 400,000 business and luxury enthusiasts, a genuine source of inspiration for entrepreneurs and industry lovers alike. Together, we explore the bold concept of "smart luxury" and redefine what luxury really means at Gemmyo.
🔥 A rich, funny, and inspiring conversation that I hope teaches you as much as it taught me.
