Ethical Fashion Brazil at Impact Fest 2020

We will offer two different topics to discuss with a selected group of people. Check out:

Social Technologies of Rubber in the Amazon

27th October 2020

What are social technologies? And how to develop a business in the middle of the largest rainforest in the world? Is it possible to talk about the 4.0 industry in the Amazon? A PhD researcher and fashion activist (https://ethicalfashionbrazil.com) will share her findings in the last few years.  As a vector for the discussion, we will talk about the global value chain of rubber products, from Brazil to Europe. Welcome to a journey with indigenous people, rubber tappers, ayahuasca, international enterprises, NGOs, scientists and politicians.

Phygital Marketplace for Sustainable Fashion SMEs

28th October 2020

How to connect small and medium fashion enterprises to new customers in the phygital paradigm? Along one year, a team of programmers (http://www.ijunior.com.br/) developed a flexible and highly customized Marketplace of the website Ethical Fashion Brazil (https://ethicalfashionbrazil.com/shop-homepage). However, we realized that the costs and taxes to ship a unique and accessible product from one country to the other would make the business not profitable. What to do? The solution we found was to combine the digital marketplace with local stores.
