"The Asia Fashion Summit was one
of the best things I have done for my business. As a new designer who has just
set up a business, the insights in to the business of fashion and contacts I
have made from the summit have been invaluable. It has helped me look at
things from a business perspective and not just from the design, product and
customer point of view. Talking to the speakers has also
inspired & energized me. I could not recommend it more. The topics were
varied but highly relevant & topical. The speakers were excellent. Well
done!!! I can't wait to see what next year's line up is going to be." Carolyn Kan, Founder, Carrie K.
