The event will begin with an Inner Circle Meeting, bringing together brand owners, retailers and manufacturers to discuss key sustainability challenges and explore collective solutions. The closed-door session is designed to facilitate open discussions on best practices, industry needs and future strategies for embedding sustainability within the fashion supply chain.
Following this, the meeting will open to all POC members, offering attendees a chance to discover cutting-edge innovations at The Mills Fabrica, a renowned hub for sustainable fashion and material science.

The Mills Fabrica is inviting some of its pioneering start ups to the event to share with POC members what the future of material innovation will look like.
These will include Nanoloom – which uses graphene textiles, replacing traditional synthetic materials, particularly elastane; Modern Synthesis – which uses bacterial nano cellulose to create textile alternatives that look and perform like leather, without the environmental impact; Colorifix – utilising biologically occurring colours in microbes, Colorifix engineers microorganisms to make, deposit and fix colours onto surfaces, such as textiles, thereby eliminating the need for the 5 trillion litres of water and over 70 toxic chemicals currently used in the dyeing process of textiles; and Savian/Bio-Fluff, which provides an alternative to animal-based fur materials and plastic-based plush, using flax, nettle and hemp that is biodegradable and recyclable.
Tickets are also available for the Products of Change Conference, which is taking place on Wednesday 5 November at the Royal Geographical Society. For further details, simply click on this link.
