FTF founded by Karen Harvey a visionary with an awareness that there is a huge hunger for Tech Savy Fashion being that we are deeply into our personal gadgets and a fashionably aware culture with the help of social media, you tube, online publications and all things internet.  We are in the beginning movement of merging fashion/tech cultivated by designers and engineers working together to understand and explore ways of integrating apparel, accessories virtually everything we put on from wearable tech to designs that have utilitarian purposes. The world is becoming sophisticated with a demand for fashion that not only look’s good but also solves problems and entertains us; for this reason the Fashion Tech Forum is needed offering an environment where tech/fashion and business minds meet to connect, hold conferences, share ideas, discover new information and view showcased products – M2M, Prynt, Reify, Orchard Mile, Thursday Finest, Evrnu, Sundar, RED Marketplace, Obviously social and Leblum.

Can’t wait to see what FTF has in store for us in 2017.
