"As trailblazers within the textile industry, we try to spotlight what's trending; whether that is covering certain topics or product advancements with vendors and mills. It's important to address what's happening in the industry to stay relevant. This year, sustainability was an obvious choice for our spotlight. Because being sustainable has reached a point that it's too important to ignore, our show now explores the importance of speed to market, as well having the ability to supply eco-friendly sourcing options in order to retain and obtain buyers. Manufacturers are starting to see this as a requirement and not just an option due to increased global concerns about business practices.
