With the wearables market maturing and tech being integrated in various facets of our lives, it’s only normal that we will begin to see more of fashion being integrated with tech as well.
To this effect, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) have announced a collaboration with Accenture to help shape how fashion can integrate tech to gain consumer insights for its business practices.
Combining Accenture’s adept knowledge in the field of customer experience, insights, strategy and technology alongside the creativity that’s abundant in the CFDA, the two organisations aim to create talent-development programs for fashion designers and retailers.
Expect thought leadership articles from Accenture on the future of fashion customer experience while some of the ideas tested live with members of the CFDA. This new method will no doubt provide an invaluable insights to members of the CFDA while also helping Accenture create solutions it can share with its clients. #EverybodyWins. Literally.
“CFDA’s new collaboration with Accenture will provide our design community with an invaluable resource to help navigate retail and business technology,” says Ashley-Brooke Sandall, director of strategic partnerships at CFDA.
We at Pankara are excited about this new collaboration and can’t wait to dig into Accenture’s discoveries.
Peace, hugs & cupcakes,
