Business Models for a Circular Fashion Economy

I forlængelse af udstillingen ’Cirkulær Økonomi i arkitektur og design’ præsenterer KADK en åben seminarrække, der blandt andet vil sætte fokus på emner som arkitekturens samspil med naturen og cirkulær design. Seminarrækken trækker på viden og erfaring fra nogle af verdens førende arkitekter og designere på området, der er inviteret til at tale om deres arbejde på det cirkulære felt. 

Why are we not better at using sustainable materials? Which intervention could change how we use sustainable materials and leftover material? How can new business models enable a Circular Economy? 

This lecture is conducted by Stephanie Benedetto, Founder of Queen of Raw. The lecture will focus on business models for a circular economy and how an online marketplace for unused fabrics and high quality raw materials was established. Queen of Raw is an online marketplace connecting designers with global suppliers selected for their innovative raw materials, sustainability value, and avant-garde approach to fashion and technology. 

Stephanie Benedetto is also LAUNCH Innovator 2016. She will at the seminar December 14th, 2017 at 15:00-17:00 talk about her professional and personal journey towards a circular economy and how her platform have scaled through LAUNCH. The seminar will give you insights on how to join the movement and we invite you to engage in the discussion. 

This lecture will be held in english and takes place in Auditorium 2 at KADK.
