Kering withdraws from British luxury bag rental company Cocoon

Kering announced that it has withdrawn from the British luxury bag rental start-up Cocoon, confirming a report by media outlet L'informé. The French luxury group had first invested in Cocoon in 2021. With its new CEO, Luca de Meo, due to take the helm on September 15, Kering has undergone a number of transformations, ranging from the creative and general management of its main brands to its real estate assets. As part of its transformation, Kering is also examining its minority stakes and has withdrawn from Cocoon, confirming a report by the French media outlet L'informé. Kering is the parent company of Gucci, Balenciaga, and Bottega Veneta and counts the Pinault family as its principal shareholder. Cocoon was founded in 2019 by former Vestiaire Collective marketing director Ceanne Fernandes-Wong and Matt Heiman, offering a subscription-based rental concept for high-end bags. The business saw Kering and Depop founder Simon Beckerman take part in its funding round in 2021. At the time, the company raised just under 3 million euros. The London-based company later saw Ceanne Fernandes-Wong leave the project in 2024. Kering had invested in Cocoon via its venture capital company Kering Ventures, owning 8.1% of the capital. According to group data, it exited Cocoon in January. At the end of 2024, Kering Ventures also held minority stakes in Vestiaire Collective, Revalorem, and the Italian company Mogu, which develops mycelium-based technologies.

France and Italy meet to defend "made in Europe"

The two countries' ministers are also expected to discuss automotive issues, with the "shared objective" of "strengthening demand for clean vehicles with European content," and to tackle the question of "European preference," for example in public procurement. "Italy is moving closer and closer to France on a number of positions," said Parisian representatives, referring again to nuclear power, which Italy wants to revive. Italy also advocates, like France, that nuclear power should be treated in a similar way to renewable energies in European legislation. "The issue of competitiveness and technological neutrality is one of the subjects on which we agree with the Italians," added the French ministers' offices. Thursday's meeting in Paris will take place as part of the Quirinal Treaty, signed between the two countries in 2021. The treaty includes annual meetings between French and Italian ministers. Giorgia Meloni and Emmanuel Macron displayed their "shared commitment" and "strong convergences" during a long tête-à-tête in Rome in early June. The meeting was held in part to dispel the tensions of recent weeks, which have been amplified since Donald Trump 's return to the White House.
