Sourcing at Magic Education: Sustainable from the Start

Virtual Live Stream of Education Session: Sustainable from the Start

It’s the perfect way to join if you’re unable to make it in-person to the Sourcing at Magic, Las Vegas show February 14th! Panel begins promptly at 12:30pm PT/3:30pm ET and will be recorded. Thirty minutes before the event begins, registered attendees will be emailed the event Zoom link.

Sustainable from the Start Education Topic:

Big business is in the crosshairs first, but sooner – not later – every brand and every designer will need to account for the footprint of their collections. From facing fines to being refused retail space, or even having shipments turned away at the border, the risks of not knowing the sustainability profile of your products are getting higher.

But what does it actually mean to start building that knowledge now? How far can technology help? And when you do have the data to understand your impact, how can you act on it without completely overhauling the way you work?

Join Ben and Camille for a breakdown of the mandate and the mechanics for a new model of design and sourcing that starts with impact in mind. Then start your sustainable sourcing journey!

Speakers:

Ben Hanson, Editor-in-Chief, The Interline
