Poor working conditions, unsustainable resources, tons of waste … there are many negative aspects of the fashion industry. Around 80 students from TUMCS discussed how to unf*ck it!
The discussions were enriched by two keynote speeches by our guests:
Katrin Bolkart is a Principal Consultant at Anthesis Group, one of the largest sustainability consultancies. Her focus is on life cycle analysis and carbon accounting. In her keynote, she shared important insights on the state of the sustainable transformation of the fashion industry with the audience.

In his keynote speech and a subsequent interview, he told us about the process of upcycling textiles and explained his path to becoming a start-up.
