International Womens Day: Women in Sustainable Fashion Panel and Discussion

Women and the Business of Sustainable Fashion

This event is being co-developed by CSM in partnership with ESCP London's Green & Impact Office and will bring together leading voices shaping the future of sustainable fashion. The discussion will take place on 12 March at 6:00pm, followed by a networking reception.

Curated by Hywel Davies (Dean M School) and Christina Bartholomew (ESCP London Sustainability Lead), the panel offers a dynamic ecosystem of expertise — from experts in material innovation and circular design systems to an entrepreneur looking to scale innovative material, and finally, a perspective on the legal frameworks and motivations that drive corporate strategy to embrace sustainability. The conversation promises to uncover how responsible fashion can be built, scaled, and sustained. We're honoured to feature the following speakers.

• Carole Collet - (Chair) Prof in Design of Sustainable Futures
• Kate Goldsworthy - Director of CSM's new Future Denim Lab
• Olivera Medenica - New York based Fashion IP attorney
• Sarah Angold - Entrepreneur developing material from banana waste.

We look forward to seeing you there.
