5 februari: The Future of Fashion – Promoting circular economy

Breaking the link between economic growth and the consumption of resources is a core element of sustainable transformation. The aim is to move away from a linear economy and linear ways of working in favor of a sustainable yet profitable circular economy. Closed loops generate new business models, while conserving or reusing resources leads to cost reductions.

Explore how circular economy practices are reshaping the textile industry. Discover innovative solutions, network with experts, and lead the way in sustainable fashion. Join us to redefine the future of fashion.
