Fashinnovation Launch The ‘Fashion Is Now’ Virtual Event From New York City On February 11th
The world of fashion is and always has been at the forefront of change – be it through cultural adaptation or even economically.
In 2020, covid-19 drastically changed the human trajectory on earth, and fashion is an industry which suffered.
However, what is important is that we now look ahead and re-create. the feeling of “living in the now” became a crucial way of thinking.
The fear of death and the doubts of tomorrow can no longer be more significant than what our hands have the power to do now.
This is why the new concept of fashinnovation is, now.
Throughout the day, guests will experience:
keynote talks
panel discussions
storytelling of new brands and companies
finance/investment approach to fashion followed by a start-up pitch competition with fashion tech companies from around the world with a panel of judges
