Welcome to the Sustainability Connect Conference (SCC2026)!
Join us online on March 17, 2026, for an inspiring day dedicated to one of today’s most urgent sustainability challenges: Sustainable (Slow) Fashion. This year, we bring together an exciting lineup of speakers, innovative companies, and interactive workshop hosts to explore the environmental and social impact of fast fashion—and how circular strategies, responsible innovation, and new business models can help reshape the future of the fashion industry.
Join engaging sessions on slow fashion and sustainability, where you’ll explore circular fashion business models, innovative solutions, and the role young professionals play in shaping a more responsible fashion industry. Expect hands-on insights, real-world examples, and inspiration to connect your studies and future career to one of today’s most urgent sustainability challenges.
Mark your calendars and prepare to be part of a movement redefining fashion for a healthier planet and society!
