On 18 March, Vogue Business in partnership with Li & Fung, will host Vogue Business Fashion Futures in Shanghai. Held at Li & Fung’s inspiring new campus, the event will kick off in the morning with the opening of the architecturally rich new site, featuring its highly anticipated relaunch of the “Explorium@LiFung Plaza” innovation platform — the curator and convenor of fashion tech.
Following the opening ceremony, guests will enjoy an afternoon packed with expert insights from international guest speakers and local brand leaders including regulators, investors and founders operating in the fashion and luxury industries. We will explore the challenges, opportunities and developments needed to create real collective progress across sustainability and innovation in the fashion and luxury goods sector.
This summit, following the launch of the event series at London’s Design Museum last November, will bring a renewed focus on supply chain evolution and transformative technology to Shanghai’s retail, manufacturing and investor community with a live interactive format.
Alongside an energetic discussion agenda, the event will also feature an expo of startups and innovators providing ground-breaking solutions that fuel sustainability in fashion.
Fashion Futures Shanghai will close with a networking cocktail reception, offering guests a further opportunity to connect with Vogue Business editors and Li & Fung thought leaders, while building professional relationships in the fashion industry.
Places at this event are by invitation only. If you have received an invitation please RSVP as soon as possible by emailing stephen.morgan@condenast.com with any dietary and accessibility requirements.
