Fashion-Enter Ltd’s Founder and CEO, Jenny Holloway took up the role of moderator at the ASBCI conference – ‘3Rs of AI – Risks, Rewards and Responsibilities’ in Halifax. The all-day ASBCI (Association of Supplier to the British Clothing Industry) conference took place on 16th October and brought together leading industry experts to share their insights and forward vision.
Discussing Artificial Intelligence in Fashion Jenny’s morning panel consisted of industry specialists: Dr Ahmed Zaidi – AI expert, Nick Eley – Creative Leader at ASOS, Maggie Chen – partner at Style3D and Peter Gallagher-Witham – Founder of The Fashion Guild. Questions discussed included: ‘How can the fashion industry create a fair balance between human creativity and AI driven innovation ensuring that designers retain their creative authority?’
Jenny commented: “Thanks to ASBCI for asking me to moderate. I have never moderated a panel before so certainly found this to be a new experience and really enjoyed the interaction with the panel and the attendees. We ran over time with the amount of questions being asked.
“What is clear is that this is just the beginning for AI in fashion. There are so many advancements, almost on a daily basis, that it’s easy to be left behind. ASBCI is well respected and is an intimate membership trade body and it was just fab to meet like-minded people that are being so positive towards the challenges of our glorious fashion industry. Here’s to next year.”
Additionally, big congratulations to Elizabeth Brandwood (pictured), who is now taking on the role of Chair of ASBCI – here’s to a new chapter.
