Creating the luxury experience, an alumni gathering to celebrate talent and build community
Tradition lives on. That's why, last Thursday, ISEM once again brought together its alumni community for a very special gathering. Under the title "Creating the luxury experience," it combined knowledge, creativity, and reunions in the midst of the pre-Christmas season. This year, the "En Bruto" gastronomic space in the center of Madrid served as the venue for welcoming alumni from different graduating classes, who filled the room with hugs, greetings, and the excitement of seeing each other again.

The evening began with a round table discussion featuring three professionals whose careers are deeply linked to the world of luxury: Bruno Arnau, director of the Acierta architecture studio; Sofía López-Quesada, partner and co-founder of Wozere Studio; and Silvia Brandão, founder of the boutique catering company BeChic. Moderated by ProfessorPedro Mir, the speakers shared their views on what luxury means today, how to create a unique experience, and what brands expect from them when they are faced with creative campaigns, architectural projects, or events that seek to stand out. Their answers resonated with the audience, many of whom are linked to the fashion and luxury sector, sparking a lively conversation on the subject.
At the end, Marta Torregrosa, director of ISEM, took the floor to thank everyone for attending and toast the Alumni community. Her words served as a reminder that ISEM is much more than an academic center. She also took the opportunity to wish everyone present a Merry Christmas before the cocktail reception.
The warm atmosphere, lively conversations, and desire to reconnect created the perfect environment for continuing to share memories, work news, and personal projects.
The dessert, prepared by BeChic, became one of the highlights of the evening, as Silvia Brandão surprised everyone with trompe l'oeil tomatoes, a dessert originally designed for Loewe in homage to its iconic "Tomate" bag. Amid laughter, anecdotes, and new contacts, the event once again achieved its goal: to strengthen a community that grows every year and keep the ISEM spirit alive.
