In the past, the fashion industry was characterized by a supply-driven mindset that led to massive waste and overstock. The digital fabric cloud platform, Frontier.cool, drastically reduces production costs and waste through digitalization and AI, and has secured international brand clients such as Adidas and Under Armour.

We are pleased to have Wayne Y. Fan, co-founder & chief strategy officer of Frontier.cool, to discuss the technology gap between brands and production, the transformation of the entire fabric supply chain, and how he has built scalable business models in the sustainability field.
