Berlin has quickly established itself as one of the biggest European fashion tech hubs, alongside London, Paris and Amsterdam. From our friends at Elektrocouture nurturing creative and engineering talent, to the inspiring Hannah Roericht establishing a fashion tech division at H+K Strategies, Germany is paying serious attention to the developments in the area and their implications for businesses.
Things are just as good on the events front. The city regularly hosts conferences, hackathons and meetups for enthusiasts and professionals in the industry, with one of the most anticipated being Wear It festival. So, needless to say we’re incredibly excited to have partnered with Wear It for this year’s edition! Read on to see how you can win tickets to one of the biggest fashion tech events in June.
The third edition of Wear It, taking place on 8th and 9th June 2017, will explore the potential of wearable electronics with focus on new product development and the most forward-thinking concepts in the field of fashion and technology. Attendees will learn from the successful companies and meet the most important influencers within fashion, art, technology, politics and culture.
Key topics for the festival are Interdisciplinary Collaborations, Redefining Value Chains and The Final Revolution. The event will include workshops on how to create your own wearable, startup expo as well as talks and panels with experts in the field. On that note, don’t miss our own Kristina Dimitrova, who will be on the Wear It stage on 9th June, talking about how technologies like augmented, virtual and mixed reality can enhance storytelling and bring immersive experiences in the fashion world and beyond. Fellow confirmed speakers include Matthew Drinkwater (Head of FIA London), Wolfgang Langeder (Founder of Skarabeos), creative technologist Lina Wassong and many more.
