Training and Conferences | Fashion 4.0 strategies and sustainable development

Vestechpro invites the CETI for 3 days of training and conferences on fashion 4.0 strategies and sustainable development, that will take place from 22th to 24th of may 2019.

The adoption of digital technology is a necessity for all industries, all over the world. However, several companies in the clothing sector have still not adopted strategies in this direction - through lack of knowledge or lack of human and financial resources - which would allow them to better position themselves in a competitive market.

In addition, the environmental, social and ethical challenges we face are not only a threat, but also a huge opportunity for untapped value creation.

How to integrate these technologies and concepts for a more ethical and efficient production?

Vestechpro, Clothing Research and Innovation Center, presents a training program for professionals in the clothing industry to be given by the experts of the European Center for Innovative Textiles (CETI) located in France. CETI ranks among the world's five most influential technical centers in its field of activity.

The collaboration between CETI and Vestechpro makes it possible to propose innovative solutions adapted to all stakeholders in the clothing sector - textiles, fashion, luxury goods and retail - in line with the societal challenges of smart technologies, the environmental footprint , digital transformation, well-being and value ecosystems.

Through this training program, Vestechpro wants to support decision makers in adopting new practices to initiate changes to ensure the sustainability of their business.
