AFI In Conversations Webinar: Tech, AI & The Fashion Industry
Africa’s creative industry is on the cusp of transformative growth, with its artists, designers, and innovators achieving global acclaim.
However, as demand for African creativity grows, there is an urgent need to leverage technology to reach wider audiences, identify growth and collaborative opportunities, and to stay ahead of rapidly evolving trends.
In the fashion industry, technology is becoming a game-changer, reshaping traditional practices and unlocking new possibilities.
AI, wearable technology, and digital fashion are increasingly popular tools globally, and African designers have the potential to harness these advancements to redefine their processes and expand their influence.
The global fashion industry has made strides in using AI and emerging technologies to streamline operations and improve creativity.
Trend analysts, including WGSN and Peclers, are already making use of AI for their analysis of the trends spotted on global runways.
McKinsey analysts believe that Generative AI could add anywhere from $150 billion to $275 billion in profits to the fashion industry by 2030.
In light of this, Africa Fashion International is excited to present “New Technology and AI in the Fashion & Creative Industry in Africa,” a solutions-driven dialogue that delves into the evolving tech and fashion landscape. It will be taking place on Monday, 25 November 2024 at 15:00 SAST.
This conversation will be focused on the business of new technology and AI in the fashion and creative industries, the skills required to succeed, and the importance of empowerment in navigating challenges and building sustainable careers.
