The "fast fashion" paradigm is giving way to more sustainable and eco-friendly value chains, driven by technological advances and digital economy tools. The webinar, themed Technology at the heart of tomorrow's fashion, will examine these developments and the promising alliance between fashion and technology in both pre- and post-COVID-19 contexts.

Panelists will identify innovations that were sparked by the onset of the pandemic, and share insights on emerging solutions, including artificial intelligence, to develop a sustainable and viable fashion industry on the continent. The line-up includes fashion designers, entrepreneurs and other industry experts.

Participants can expect to gain greater knowledge of innovative business models that could benefit their businesses.
