Our events

This GCA Summit in Stockholm was a full day of bold ideas and human connection. From systems thinkers to next-generation innovators – including our 2025 winners pitching their game-changing solutions on stage – voices like Solitaire Townsend, Dr Linda Greer and Miles Kubheka sparked new ways of seeing and shaping the decade ahead, proving that real change starts with people, collaboration and imagination.

How can we accelerate innovation and what actions can we take today to create the net-zero industry of tomorrow? Those were the main topics as we gathered changemakers, systems thinkers, suppliers, brands, industry experts, investors and more in Mumbai, India, for the Global Change Award Launch Summit.

Brands, investors, innovators and decision-makers gathered to discuss what the actionable steps are to transform the fashion and textile industry into a socially inclusive and planet positive one. And the keyword here is: together. We need to initiate discussions with the right stakeholders to make change happen. We also need a different narrative, as doom and gloom messages don’t work.

We gathered at Fotografiska Stocholm for a morning of inspiration and learn about the power of perception. Explore how a shift in our worldviews could open new paths to a brighter future and be a key enabler in creating a more inclusive society – and textile industry.

We gathered brands, stakeholders, and decision-makers to show what a radically transformed textile industry can look like in 2063. We also put disruptive innovation in the front row, sharing knowledge, initiating collaborations and taking action for an inclusive and planet positive fashion future.
