Sustainability accelerated #02: Connected Journeys

After understanding the “why” behind regulations like the Digital Product Passport in Session 1, it’s time to explore the “how”.

In this second session of the Sustainability Accelerated digital series, we bring together fashion brands to share their real-life experiences of driving sustainability through digital transformation.

You’ll hear how they’re connecting product development and traceability, navigating internal challenges, and rethinking how teams and suppliers collaborate — all while keeping sustainability goals front and center.

Whether you're just starting your sustainability journey or scaling it, this session offers practical inspiration and grounded advice from peers facing similar challenges.

Panel discussion

Hear from forward-thinking brands OVS and VAUDE as they share practical lessons on embedding sustainability and traceability into product development. This panel session will show how they translate commitments into measurable results, prepare for the Digital Product Passport, and integrate traceability and sustainability directly into PLM workflows.

During this live webinar, you will learn 

•  How brands are building their sustainability foundations
• What triggered their transformation journeys, and how they got buy-in internally
• How digital tools enabled smarter, more connected decision-making
• What results they’ve seen across product development, traceability, and reporting
• Tips and lessons learned that you can apply in your own organization
