Smiley sponsors Global Fashion Agenda Designer Challenge as part of the Future Positive Creators Fund Initiative.
Global Fashion Agenda (GFA) non-profit encourages brands to collaborate for positive impacts – to create a fashion industry that is benefiting the planet, rather than taking from it.
GFA’s Global Fashion Summit is the place to be for fashion brands who truly care about making a difference. The theme for this year is ‘Ambition to Action’; to motivate shareholders, leaders and those in a position of influence to commit to positive change – and to decide together what must be done to meet sustainability goals.
Smiley is proud to be a sponsor of Global Fashion Agenda’s Designer Challenge 2023, an initiative following exceptional Creative Directors and their sustainable design processes from original idea to final product: matching style and ingenuity with supercharged tech solutions.
Through Smiley’s Future Positive Creative Fund, we aim to provide support and mentorship to groundbreaking designers on their creative journey. Together with GFA, we share a common goal of driving positive impact by nurturing and assisting creative talent.
Two designer challenges were showcased at the leading forum of sustainability in fashion, Global Fashion Summit: Copenhagen Edition on 27-28 June in an interactive showcase. Continuing the impact of the GFA Designer Challenge, a third film will also be released in September 2023.
