Each year, The Business of Fashion takes a look at the forces shaping the wider world in business, technology and culture at VOICES, our annual gathering for Big Thinkers, this year taking place from December 1 to 3.

We have a stellar line-up of world-renowned insiders and experts to prepare you for the year to come:

• Cédric Charbit, chief executive officer of Balenciaga, will speak on how fashion’s hottest brand is balancing hype with timelessness.
• Ian Rogers, chief experience officer of Ledger will moderate a debate between Lady Ph0enix, founder of virtual museum network YesUniverse, and Heni founder Joe Hage on the future of the metaverse.
• Dame Vivienne Westwood will speak on repairing the climate, rewilding and conscious consumerism.
• Dame Ellen MacArthur will share the latest thinking from her foundation on embedding circular design principles into fashion.
• Cybersecurity expert Gentry Lane will share thoughts on how vulnerable industries like fashion are to cyber adversaries, and what actions businesses can take to protect their businesses and their customers.
• Former monk, podcaster and best selling author Jay Shetty will share advice on the importance of purpose and finding your compass in a chaotic world.
