LOS ANGELES, United States — Kris Jenner will join Kim Kardashian West on-stage at BoF West, our inaugural invitation-only summit where Silicon Valley, Hollywood and fashion collide.
The mother-daughter duo will take part in a panel discussion on "Creating Cultural Moments," exploring how they used the advantages of using Los Angeles as their base and how they leveraged their fame as a reality television family to grow Kardashian West's beauty and fragrance businesses.
Jenner is an entrepreneur, a New York Times bestselling author and the creator, executive producer and star of the award-winning reality series "Keeping Up with the Kardashians." She manages the careers of six children and has been instrumental in guiding their successful family brands including Kylie Cosmetics, KKW Beauty, Kids Supply, the Kendall+Kylie collection and Arthur George.
BoF West, hosted in partnership with Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, will unpick the powerful intersection of creative and technology-based businesses in front of an audience of leaders, decision-makers and creatives from the most influential luxury fashion brands and businesses.
Other speakers include Stitch Fix founder and chief executive Katrina Lake; Everlane founder and chief executive Michael Preysman; and Beautycon Media chief executive Moj Mahdara, who will discuss "Creative Entrepreneurship on the West Coast," taking deep look at how fashion and beauty entrepreneurs are using California's unique aspects to their advantage.
Elsewhere, media consultant Janice Min will moderate a discussion on "The Future of the Red Carpet" with Elizabeth Saltzman, stylist and contributing editor at Vanity Fair; The Hollywood Reporter fashion and beauty director Carol McColgin; celebrity stylist Karla Welch; and JSN Studio creative director Jason Bolden.
