COCOONESE in 2024 AFTEX and Trade & Sustainability Summit in Thailand.
We are thrilled to share our experiences from our first-time attendance at two prominent conferences: the STAR x AFTEX Summit 2024 and the Trade & Sustainability Summit 2024 in Thailand. This trip has been an invaluable learning opportunity for us.
Engagement at the Thailand Textile Institute
Our visit to the Thailand Textile Institute included an engaging session on the Textile, Apparel, and Fashion Industries, with a particular focus on the emerging sectors of technical textiles and smart apparel. This interaction provided us with deep insights into the latest industry trends and innovations.
Eye-Opening Visit to ICONSIAM
Our tour of ICONSIAM, Bangkok’s latest attraction and a dazzling shopping haven, was an enlightening experience. ICONSIAM not only hosts luxury brands but also supports numerous independent Thai brands, featuring attractions such as an indoor floating market. Through the management of ICONSIAM, we gained valuable knowledge from a new case study on market opportunities and retail centers in Bangkok.
Malaysia-Singapore and Thailand Business Matching Session
The Malaysia-Singapore and Thailand Business Matching Session was a highlight for COCOONESE. This session offered us a precious opportunity to engage face-to-face with various companies and suppliers. It presented a significant chance for COCOONESE to explore expansion opportunities in the future.
Insights from the Sustainability Summit
The Sustainability Summit: The Trade of Tomorrow, organized by the National Federation of Thai Textile Industries, provided us with profound insights into Thailand’s fashion, textile, and apparel industries. We learned about sustainable practices and future trends that are shaping the industry.
The Jim Thompson House Museum visit
In conclusion, our participation in these events has enriched COCOONESE with a wealth of knowledge about the fashion and sustainability industries. We are excited to apply these learnings as we embark on our next chapter.
Thanks to the Singapore Fashion Council for organizing and assisting in this trip.
