Fashion Council Germany have launched the transatlantic cooperation project Berlin Fashion x International (before: Fashion Forward Network (FFN)), which aims to support new business partnerships between Berlin and the USA. Berlin-based companies, agencies and impact tech start-ups will be connected with innovators, institutions and pioneers in the USA. The aim is not only to stimulate growth, but also to drive further development in the areas of sustainability and digitalisation on both sides of the Atlantic.

Participants in the project will have access to customised resources that meet their individual business needs: From tapping into the US market and legal expertise to presenting at prestigious trade shows and making strategic connections. Networking events, delegation trips, workshops and webinars promote German-American business relations and drive the success and internationalisation of Berlin. The common goal is to strengthen competitiveness

Fashion Forward Network is supported by a state programme funded by the ERDF and the State of Berlin.
