A number of the speakers who were appearing at Kohler’s Experiential Luxury themed event were travelling to Melbourne from overseas – but with the spread of the virus and an increasing level of travel restrictions being imposed, Kohler felt it was prudent to postpone the event until more favourable times.

An announcement as to the time, venue and speaker line-up will be made at a later date.
