Berlin is thriving itself to refocus on its roots as the European capital of cultural and creative industries and continues to focus on a sustainable future with a more than ever cross-disciplinary and cultural approach to celebrate fashion and the people involved. \n  \nBe sure to check out Textile Exchange’s COO\, Claire\, as a speaker!  URL:https://textileexchange.org/event/202030-the-berlin-fashion-summit/ CATEGORIES:Industry Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20220309T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20220309T190000 DTSTAMP:20260404T061538 CREATED:20221110T215923Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221110T215950Z UID:37372-1646848800-1646852400@textileexchange.org SUMMARY:Webinar: Exploring the Textile Exchange Regenerative Agriculture Landscape Analysis Report (2) DESCRIPTION:To Participate-be sure to Register Here! \nPart 2 from February 15th webinar – With regenerative agriculture fast gaining momentum in the fashion and textile industry\, brands don’t have the luxury of a one-size-fits-all set of practices or solutions to implement.
