Beyond Brexit Helping the fashion industry turn uncertainty into opportunity

Beyond Brexit Helping the fashion industry turn uncertainty into opportunity

Chair of the network David Reay was one of the keynote speakers at the recent ASBCI conference on the 26th October 2017, Marriott Hotel, Peterborough.

Exploring the impact of Brexit on the fashion industry, David talked about the need for the Government to get behind the industry and recognise its importance. He went on further to talk about the importance of the Made in Britain brand and the need to protect this by encouraging best practice over 'informal' practices, and the industry needs support to maximise design capability, build advanced manufacturing sites, nurture clusters, and realise the potential of digital developments.
