According to the organiser, in addition to a discussion and exchange of ideas, the Smart Conversation looked at the results of an exhibitor-wide survey launched by Première Vision last July.
The survey was created to better understand and communicate exhibitors' initiatives and commitments in terms of sustainable production processes and responsible sourcing.

Through Smart Creation, Première Vision seeks to highlight a new generation of responsible values and assets, which will create new strategic perspectives for the fashion industry.

“It gives industry players a new impetus and evolving means to access creative, innovative and responsible materials and products,” it stated.
The participants included Chantal Malingrey, director of marketing and development, Première Vision; Carlo Sorrenti, R&D head, Tod's Group and Alfonso Saibene and sustainability director, Canepa SpA.
Other panelists included Andrés Franco, associate director communications, P&G Europe Fabric Care, while the discussion was moderated by Giusy Bettoni, consultant for Première Vision.
The conference proceedings were opened by Giusy Bettoni, who reminded what Smart Conversation was about, which is going deep into the subject of responsibility, which as well is a communication platform.
According to Chantal Malingrey, the fashion industry is changing and as a leading global event for fashion professionals, Première Vision Paris is the perfect place to analyse these strategic evolutions.
“The need of a 'Smart' creation and production is crucial, beyond a simple focus on sustainable products,” she too added.
