Given the global shift due to COVID-19 towards more sustainable promotional activities (less waste, lower carbon footprint, etc.),  A panel of Digital creators,  Fashion and Knitwear designers with an interest in sustainable and innovative approaches will be sharing ways in which creatives can leverage digital processes and methods in their design, marketing and communications.

Innovation is very imperative for the economic development of any nation and the creative and cultural industries are an increasingly important piece of this puzzle. The panellists will be sharing and discussing:

[1] New narratives on how African fashion and digital creators are leveraging the fashion world's growing adoption of digital technology through digital fashion production.
[2] Innovative and alternative ways to promote and showcase fashion such as high-tech design, fabrication and 3D Techniques.
[3] How fashion creatives in West Africa are embracing the versatility of digital design to increase efficiency and decrease waste.
[4] Phy-gital fashion and the role of creative collaborations.
