Access the livestream with our 30-day risk-free trial for just £1/$1/€1

Dear Reader,   VOICES 2021 begins today by taking stock of the forces shaping The Wider World. In this unmissable kick-off session beginning at 9AM London/4AM New York, we take a step back and look at the bigger picture - from the climate crisis to stakeholder capitalism, the social contract and cyber security. Our second session starts at 11am London/6am New York with Inside the Fashion System. It's time to hold a mirror up to our industry as it transforms before our very eyes. We consider the changes that are needed and the exciting opportunities these changes could bring.   The final session today, Technology & Innovation, begins at 3pm London/10am New York. Learn about innovations in the metaverse, mycology, artificial intelligence, crypto technology and NFT's, from a daring group of scientists, technologists and entrepreneurs reinventing the way our industry works.   Also on the agenda, don't miss the launch of the sixth annual State of Fashion report by The Business of Fashion and McKinsey & Company.   Access to the VOICES 2021 livestream is exclusive to BoF Professional members. Join now with our 30-day risk-free trial for just £1/$1/€1 — and receive full access to the livestream plus all the benefits of BoF Professional membership.
