Our members will have the opportunity to develop personal career goals, increase and broaden their knowledge pool and create business opportunities between members and industry corporations.

Our Mission:
We put members’ professional growth as the top priority. Our mission is to help every member who wants to start or further career life in luxury and design industry to maximize their potential and achieve their professional goals.

Our Vision:
Our club will integrate the knowledge and resource in and out of MIP to work as a knowledge center of Luxury and Design industry to the benefit of our members.
