Sustainable Style: Fashion, The Apparel Industry and the Circular Economy

StartupSB, THE SANDBOX and Toad&Co present Sustainable Style: Fashion and the Circular Economy.

Join us for an evening dedicated to exploring innovation in the apparel industry and its positive impact on the environment. Learn from local companies and industry leaders and sustainability advocates as we discuss the potential of the circular economy in revolutionizing the way we produce, consume, and dispose of fashion.

The night kicks off with networking followed by a panel discussion featuring pioneers in the field of circular fashion. Hear from companies that have successfully integrated circular principles into their brands, promoting ethical production practices, responsible sourcing, and end-of-life solutions. Discover their journeys, learn about their challenges and successes, and gain invaluable insights into the circular economy's potential for transforming the fashion industry.

Moderator: Karla Mora, Alante Capital
Panelists:

• Stuart Jenkins, Founder @ Blumaka
• Sarah Pinner, Founder and CEO @ Beni
• Sarah Palladino, Senior Manager of People, Planet & Community @ Toad&Co

After the panel you'll have the opportunity to continue networking with industry professionals, fashion enthusiasts, and sustainability advocates. Connect with like-minded individuals who share your passion for a more sustainable and inclusive fashion industry, and forge collaborations that can shape the future of fashion.

We'll be joined by 45 students and teachers from Brazil, who are part of Startup Summer Camp (www.startupsummercamp.com).

The event will be held outside! Bring your own cup if you'd like some frothy adult beverages.

The event is sponsored by Toad&Co, StartupSB and THE SANDBOX.

This event is the first in a summer series of events produced by StartupSB and a relaunch of StartupSB after an extended COVID break. It's time to reStartSB.
