“I’m thrilled that Persson will be joining us at the 2020 summit, which will delve into the theme ‘Redesigning Growth’. A vast amount of people are unable to afford luxury fashion, so finding solutions to produce sustainable fashion for the masses is crucial. H&M group has been spearheading sustainability in fashion for more than a decade, and due to their position globally, they have a huge role to play in creating the path forward for a sustainable business model that is in balance with people and our planet,” Eva Kruse, CEO of Global Fashion Agenda said.
