Kering hosted its first edition of La Nuit au Musée, celebrating a major milestone at Paris’s scientific heritage spot, the National Museum of Natural History: the conversion of over one million hectares of farms and pastures within its supply chains into regenerative agriculture spaces.
Taking place on December 9th, La Nuit au Musée was an immersive experience dedicated to honoring the multinational’s ongoing commitment to the preservation of the living world and biodiversity strategy. Held at the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle’s Jardin des Plantes and Grande Galerie de l’Évolution, the evening, attended by Marie-Claire Daveu, Chief Sustainability and Institutional Affairs Officer at Kering, and Gilles Bloch, President of the National Museum of Natural History. The group proudly announced Kering’s conversion of a vast amount of its supply chain’s farms and pastures into regenerative agriculture spaces, having surpassed the goals set under its Regenerative Fund for Nature established in 2021.
La Nuit au Musée provided a sensory experience for the attending guests, featuring a poetic, fully local, vegetarian, and low-carbon footprint dinner created by gastronomic studio Caro Diario to emulate the cycles of nature: sowing, growing, and preserving, presented on Ginori 1735’s archival Labirinto porcelain. The living world tribute continued with a musical performance by British-Nigerian composer Tony Njoku, dressed in an ethical wool suit by Brioni. He performed a set blending electronic and classical influences, inspired by a night where high culture and ecological responsibility blended as one. The night served as a reminder of how luxury relies on nature, a relationship Kering is actively strengthening by regenerating the very soil that provides its raw materials. – Felipe Castro
