And now you can join us from anywhere in the world! Streaming live from Oxfordshire, UK we’ll be joined by thousands of members of the BoF community from over 150 countries, as we examine the most important issues of our time, from innovations changing fashion to navigating the macro forces shaping the world today.

Across five, two-hour sessions running over three days we plan to cover a lot of ground. We hope you can join us for an inspirational learning journey from 5pm London time, noon in New York on Tuesday, November 29. Join us for the whole event or the sessions of your choice, free of charge.
