Four days of showroom activities and the vibrancy of Milano Fashion Week brought numerous meetings, new connections, knowledge, and partnership agreements. This year, companies not only presented their brands but also participated in special training sessions and consultations with fashion industry experts.
AND YES, we have already signed contracts… (but more on that later). The showroom featuring 12 Ukrainian designers at Milan Fashion Week (Italy) was organized through joint funding from the German government (ad hoc funds) and the Consortium EEN-Ukraine.
Support was provided within the framework of two international cooperation programs: “EU4Business: Recovery of SMEs, Competitiveness, and Internationalization,” implemented in Ukraine by the German federal company Deutsche Gesellschaft fĂźr Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the European Union and the German government, and the Enterprise Program in Ukraine.
Organizers of the showroom: Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Ukraine / Ukrainian CCI, Consortium EEN-Ukraine – Enterprise Europe Network Ukraine, Hope Ukraine Foundation, Fino Consulting.
