Liz will be looking at ongoing innovation in the realm of fashion circularity. Brands, now more than ever, are facing challenges to support their goals. She will be unpacking some systemic issues and sharing real life practical solutions, including case studies, that prove the business case for circularity.
Value hierarchy - the optimal model to preserve the value of products and materials
Design for circularity - think of the end of a product’s life at the beginning of its life and how to choose environmentally preferred materials
Scaled post-consumer opportunities - systems that are in place to collect, sort, disassemble in order to reuse, recycle or down-cycle
Business cases for ESG - legislative and other triggers that incentivize brands today and tomorrow
Innovative technologies - entrepreneurs are using AI to support the transition to more sustainable products.
