If the fashion industry is to align with global climate objectives and its own commitments on sustainable practices, businesses need to take action at a brand level to make a difference. How can fashion leverage technology to do better?

Join us at our next in-person and digital event: BoF Professional Summit: New Frontiers in Fashion and Technology. Limited tickets are available to attend in person in New York — or join the global livestream, available to BoF Professional All-Access members. The BoF Professional Summit is presented by Coinbase.

A combination of science-based solutions and tech innovations are starting to reach maturity, moving from pilots to proofs of concept on industrial levels. But the ability to implement these innovations at scale is challenging. Our experts will offer practical guidance on how to leverage new technologies as we strive for a more planet positive industry.

• Hear from Natalie Massenet, co-founder and managing partner of Imaginary Ventures and Eon CEO Natasha Franck as they discuss the strategic and sustainability benefits for fashion businesses in linking physical products with digital IDs.
• Explore the compelling new technologies that could transform fashion’s relationship with carbon, as BoF’s chief sustainability correspondent Sarah Kent sits down with Rubi Laboratories co-founders Neeka and Leila Mashouf, and Sean Simpson, chief scientific officer at LanzaTech.
