Stacia Carr is the Chief Technology and Product Officer at second-hand Luxury Online Retailer Vestiaire Collective. As someone who grew up personally and professionally in the Bay Area, she brings a different energy to European business, probably pairing the best of both worlds, both from a technical and cultural perspective.

We sat down with her at the inaugural Shoptalk Luxe in Abu Dhabi to learn about:

  • How she brings together business and tech
  • Building a luxury online second-hand marketplace
  • Her prior experience in the Bay Area and then in Europe at the likes of SoundCloud and Zalando
  • The vision for Vestiaire Collective’s website and consumer experience
  • How they are implementing new tech like AI while enhancing the customer experience
