From May 29 to May 31, Moscow will host the «Exhibition of fashion businesses and brands». This event is held for the first time in the framework of Moscow Entrepreneurship Week, which is organized by the Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development of the City of Moscow.

The event will take place at the Center for Contemporary Art "Winery". Key representatives of the fashion industry will gather here: organizers of marketplaces, manufacturers of fabrics and accessories, retailers and buyers, specialists of promotion, SMM and advertising agencies, analysts, consultants, lawyers and creative teams of the fashion industry. Visitors of the exhibition will be able to get acquainted with the educational programs of leading design schools and meet photographers, stylists and artists. 120 exhibitors, 70 Russian fashion brands and about 4,000 visitors are expected at the exhibition.

"Our task is to create new connections between all participants of the metropolitan fashion ecosystem and unite creative companies with Moscow manufacturers. I am sure that the Exhibition of fashion Businesses and brands in Moscow will give a new impetus to the development of the capital's entrepreneurs working in the fashion industry and will allow them to form a new community for fruitful interaction. In April, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin approved the idea of creating creative technoparks in the capital and developing a system of support measures for creative spaces. At the Exhibition, participants of creative industries will be able to discuss and offer their ideas for the formation of this system to the city for the first time.
