Why attend

This is the only event in the Drapers calendar that is focused specifically on technology and innovation. The ‘future of fashion’ can mean many things, but to us it is about achieving success in a new era where consumer engagement, costs and collaboration rule supreme.

Take one day out to meet peers face to face. The work-from-home culture has many benefits, but nothing beats sharing challenges and solutions in person. Brainstorm, make industry connections, and leave feeling invigorated and inspired.

Learn from fellow fashion retail businesses by hearing about their journey – from successes to challenges, gain inspiration and action points to ensure your business knows how to move forward in the face of economic uncertainty.
