The impetus for a positive dialogue of experts was the thesis voiced by the deputy director of the direction "Young professionals" ASI,Andrey Siling, that discussion is overcoming aversion to someone else's opinion. During the presentations, the experts discussed the strengths and weaknesses of the concept of the roadmap of the market FashionNet, presented by the head of the research group,Andrey Deineko. He developed the idea of the discussion and urged everyone to "start with a clean slate".

Based on the international experience of startup acceleration, fashion director of Faberlic, Andrey Burmatikov, said that the concept outlined in the roadmap looks unrealistic and populist."You don't need to create ten thousand brands, the main thing is to create world-class technology companies," he said.

"We have to be practical. Specific projects will come out of the camp. We will create the future. The future is inevitable!»
