In 2009 he made the Young Global Leader Honourees list.
In 2011 Arnault launched the LVMH “Special Days”, the aim of which is to communicate about the workshops and expertise of the group. In 2013 he repeated the initiative and doubled the number of workshops opened to the public, bringing the total to 42. The objective was to showcase the fact that the technical know-how was continually being passed on from skilled craftsmen unto the next talented generation.
Since 2011 he is the CEO of Berluti and has worked to develop this LVMH brand through the opening of shops in California, Dubai and New York City. He hired the designer Alessandro Sartori in order to expand from a colourful shoemaker household to a full-on menswear luxury brand name. Antoine Arnault has invested €100 million in developing the brand and its colourful footwear and classic modern fit clothes.
