New York City. Not just a moment, but part of an ongoing rhythm; days shaped by constant exchange, work and perspective. Beginning this week at New York University @nyusps , attending the Philanthropy Institute dialogue “Power, Purpose and the Future of Giving “, while continuing to build and develop our work across markets. These reflections on governance, responsibility and long-term impact resonate strongly with the broader commitments we carry across cultural and humanitarian contexts, and continue to inform how we approach both brand and business. Working alongside my sister and business partner means moving beyond roles; it is a continuous dialogue of ideas, intuition and shared vision. Building as women in business brings a distinct clarity : combining intuition, structure and long-term vision while evolving across contexts. From work to quieter family moments, this balance continues to shape both our direction and our growth. #womeninbusiness #globalbusiness #brandstrategy #entrepreneurship

Returning to the International University of Monaco this Spring, following a great Career Week, a valuable moment to reconnect with colleagues and meet such engaged and talented Master’s students. I’m pleased to lead the first of a new seminar series within the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Department. A cycle I have conceived and structured, reflecting my approach to luxury brand management, combining research, strategy, and real-world application. “Shaping Luxury Futures: Innovation, Storytelling, and Strategic Practice” will engage students across fashion, hospitality, brand management and yachting, within a live strategic environment. Grateful to Annalisa Tarquini for the continued trust and support. @university_of_monaco Stay tuned 👩🏼‍🏫 #LuxuryStrategy #BrandManagement #InnovationInLuxury #CreativeLeadership #FutureOfLuxury

At the Cannes Film Festival, one of the most emotionally charged literary presentations of this edition has just taken place: the launch of The Long Red Road by Andrea Atzori, a novel that captivated the audience through the depth of its storytelling and the powerful emotional journey of its protagonists, Diego and Adelina. The event, impeccably organized by Valentina Cangiano, gathered an attentive and engaged audience, turning into a true moment of cultural and human connection. Adding further depth to the presentation was the speech by Annalisa Tarquini from the University of Montecarlo, who eloquently highlighted the novel’s essence, emphasizing its universal themes of love, rebirth, and destiny. I read The Long Red Road during my journey in Sierra Leone, an experience that allowed me to connect with the book on an even deeper and more intimate level. It is a story that resonates profoundly, accompanying the reader page after page and leaving an unforgettable emotional imprint. Also present were the students of the University of Montecarlo, who showed great interest and active engagement throughout the presentation, confirming the cultural relevance of a work capable of speaking to younger generations. Among the special guests were influencer and Monaco Woman cover girl ToceStyle – Antoniya Toneva, as well as Mrs. Riva, both of whom contributed to the elegant and exclusive atmosphere of the event. A presentation rich in pathos, emotion, and meaning, which confirmed The Long Red Road as one of the most talked-about and appreciated novels on the international literary scene. @_alessia_castelli @_monaco_woman_official_ #thelongredroad #andreaatzori #monacowoman

The future of luxury is no longer built on visibility alone. Valentina Cangiano @_valentinacangiano is helping shape a world where influence is designed through systems, governance, and cultural intelligence that quietly outlast trends. From founding Style Lab in London alongside her sister Silvia Cangiano to advising emerging luxury brands across Europe, Dubai, and New York, her work moves far beyond traditional branding. She approaches luxury as architecture — where media, talent, trust, and strategy operate as one interconnected ecosystem designed for long-term relevance and continuity. luxury brand strategy, cultural intelligence, brand governance, luxury advisory, Style Lab London, luxury ecosystem design, UAE luxury market, media architecture #gulfmagazine #gulfmag #valentinacangiano #luxurybranding #brandstrategy culturalintelligence stylelab luxuryindustry womeninbusiness

Cannes 2026. A story shaped across continents now finds its voice during the Cannes Film Festival 2026. The Long Red Road, the debut novel by Andrea Atzori @_andreaatzori , will be unveiled through an intimate cultural salon exploring the intersection of literature, cinema, memory and contemporary African narratives. Inspired by decades of humanitarian experience with Doctors with Africa CUAMM @cuammdoctorswithafrica , Andrea’s work moves beyond fiction, opening a profound reflection on identity, resilience, displacement and human connection. Presented in collaboration with Dr. Annalisa Tarquini of the International University of Monaco- IUM @university_of_monaco with curatorial direction of @_valentinacangiano the event brings together culture, education and international dialogue within one immersive and cinematic experience. At Cannes, where stories become image, sound and emotion, this special preview extends beyond literature into visual culture through a curated artistic intervention led by Kevin Beaulier (Maison Beaulier) and photographer Patrick Nassogne (MOJA). Together, the salon creates a dialogue between: literature, cinema, Africa, visual storytelling and the transformative power of cultural exchange. Because Africa is not defined by crisis. It is defined by creativity, youth, imagination and possibility.

Tomorrow within the framework of the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, The Long Red Road, the new book by Andrea Atzori, will be officially presented to the public and international press, marking an important cultural moment in the festival’s parallel literary program. The presentation is expected to attract strong attention from journalists, publishers, and industry professionals gathered in Cannes, as the event places literature within a space usually dominated by cinema. The launch of The Long Red Road reflects the growing intersection between narrative writing and audiovisual storytelling, a defining trend in contemporary culture. At its core, The Long Red Road is described as a deeply immersive narrative with a cinematic structure and a strong emotional tone. The title suggests a symbolic journey that unfolds through memory, emotional displacement, and transformation. Andrea Atzori is expected to speak about the origins of the work and the artistic influences that shaped its development. Rather than a conventional book presentation, the event in Cannes is positioned as a hybrid encounter between literature and film culture, in line with the spirit of the Cannes Film Festival. This dialogue between mediums highlights the increasing fluidity of contemporary storytelling, where written narrative and visual language often converge. With anticipation building ahead of the event, The Long Red Road arrives in Cannes not only as a literary release but also as part of a wider cultural conversation that continues to blur the boundaries between page and screen. @_monaco_woman_official_ ✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️ #thelongredroad #andreaatzori #cannes #monacowoman

A true pleasure working alongside Alessia Castelli, Editor-in-Chief & Publisher @_monaco_woman_official_ a visionary whose loyalty, integrity, and friendship I deeply value. That foundation is everything, and I have profound respect for all that she builds and inspires. Supporting this project as an advisor across brand, editorial, and creative direction has been a natural extension of what media represents to me : not just a platform, but a cornerstone of my legacy. After over a decade positioning brands, this is where real value is created: where narrative, image, and strategy come together to shine. From the timeless elegance of the Riva setting to the sophistication of the Monaco Yacht Club , this edition is more than visuals, it’s about intention, storytelling, and celebrating women with substance and impact. This is not about influence: it’s about powerful presence, vision, and leadership. Women who lead, who build, who create, and who inspire. I chose to support this project because I believe in it as a founder, as someone who has built her own path, and as a woman who stands for depth, vision, and meaningful collaboration. Thank you, Alessia @_alessia_castelli for trusting me on this second edition, I can’t wait to see what comes next. #monacowoman #Womensupportingwomen #LuxuryMedia #creativedirection
