Organized by the Fashion Commission in collaboration with Collateral Good, IE University, Misk City, Entrepreneurs’ Community by Misk, and Proaltus Capital Partners, the event will take place on November 25 at Misk City.

The forum aims to unite leaders from across industries — fashion, textiles, investment, and education — to discuss the future of sustainability and creative innovation in Saudi Arabia’s growing fashion sector.

The event reflects the Kingdom’s vision to establish a strong, responsible, and forward-thinking fashion ecosystem that aligns with global environmental and economic goals.

Hosted in Misk City, the event represents the city’s broader mission to nurture creativity, entrepreneurship, and sustainability across multiple sectors.

Misk City continues to stand as a symbol of Saudi Arabia’s future-ready approach, providing a collaborative platform for innovation and education.

The forum will further enhance this mission by bringing together pioneers in design, technology, and sustainable business practices.

The “Saudi Fabric of the Future” event will feature a diverse lineup of global and local leaders, including government officials, textile innovators, venture capitalists, and creative professionals.

Through a series of panel discussions, interactive workshops, and keynote sessions, participants will explore how technology, sustainable materials, and investment opportunities can transform the Kingdom’s fashion industry.

The forum is not only a celebration of creativity but also a strategic initiative to drive long-term change. It will highlight topics such as circular fashion, renewable materials, ethical production, and investment in sustainable manufacturing.

These discussions will help shape the future of a responsible and globally competitive fashion ecosystem in Saudi Arabia.

A key highlight of the event will be exclusive roundtable sessions designed to connect policymakers, investors, and academic experts.

These sessions will encourage collaborative decision-making and strategic partnerships that can accelerate innovation and sustainability in the fashion sector.

By uniting different fields, the forum aims to position Saudi Arabia as a leader in environmentally conscious and technologically advanced fashion.

The event will also feature a dynamic competition for Saudi entrepreneurs, where participants will present their fashion and sustainability-driven innovations.

Winners will receive mentorship from industry experts, financial support, and opportunities for real-world exposure through collaborations with established brands.

This initiative reflects the Kingdom’s focus on empowering youth and fostering local talent to become global trendsetters in sustainable design.

Networking sessions will serve as another key component, offering attendees the chance to engage directly with investors, entrepreneurs, and creative thinkers.

These interactions are expected to open doors for new collaborations, investments, and business ventures that can expand the Kingdom’s fashion and textile industries into new global markets.

By promoting sustainability, innovation, and investment together, this forum underscores Saudi Arabia’s dedication to aligning with Vision 2030 objectives.
