Fashion Business Management Professor Ann Cantrell recently spent a week at the University of Borås in Sweden on an IFFTI Exchange. Join us to hear about what she learned while she was there!
The University of Borås houses the world famous Swedish School of Textiles, located in their Textile Fashion Center, a textile hub where education, companies, incubators, and more meet. It’s all under the same roof, in Borås, a city renowned for its long textile history. They are also leading the national platform for sustainable fashion and textiles – Textile & Fashion 2030 - a task given by the Swedish government.
