 The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the textile & apparel industry like never before. In the short-term, it seems there are no positive solutions; there is no doubt of monetary and job losses. However, in the medium and long term, there are a number of steps a company can take to ready themselves for the new future and manufacturing landscape and protect themselves from vulnerabilities.  
WTiN's first virtual conference, Innovate Textile & Apparel (ITA) Online, will help you and your business through the current crisis and in the long run to thrive. Industry experts will deliver vital information on digital tools and technologies, digitalisation strategy, emerging business models and new materials on which businesses must focus on when the pandemic dust settles.
