Bringing together global and local perspectives with esteemed featured panelists Melissa Beste, Global CEO of AKRIS and Jacques Agbobly, designer and LVMH semi-finalist, the Fashion Design department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and The Driehaus Museum are pleased to present a dynamic discussion on “The Business of Fashion: Accessing Now, Looking to the Future.” From branding and supply chain logistics to marketing, finance, and digital innovation, fashion is as much a strategic enterprise as it is an art form. Join us for a dynamic conversation on the economics behind style and celebrate Chicago’s role as a growing fashion capital. The panel discussion will be hosted at the Driehaus Museum’s historic Murphy Auditorium.
