Infor partners with CII to organize conference over fashion technology

Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) Institute of Logistics, in association with Infor, organized a conference last week under the theme “Adoption of Fashion-Focussed Technology – A Perfect Fit” focussing on Fashionomics: The New Economics of Fashion. The conference enabled in-depth knowledge sharing on the challenges faced by fashion and apparel companies in India, and discussed best practices in harnessing the power of technology in the fashion and apparel segment.

Bino George, Head of Pre-Sales, Infor India and a keynote speaker, said, “Designers, distributors, manufacturers and retailers in the Indian fashion industry fully appreciate the fiercely-competitive climate in which they operate today amidst fast-changing fashion trends and increased consumer demands. They are looking to Infor to help address these industry issues as we provide specialized, purpose-built solutions that consolidate financials, sourcing, manufacturing, supply chain, sales and distribution management information into one coherent view of operations, helping to generate business efficiency and transparency.”

Veteran experts from fashion and retail technology addressed brand and logistical challenges faced by the apparel-textile-fashion industry in India, coupled with the low adoption of technology. This invitation-only event was attended by key delegates including senior management officials and professionals from various apparel manufacturing companies, brands and retailers based in India.

Among the other key speakers were Rahul Mehta, President & Chairman, CMAI & MD, Creative Casuals; Shailesh V. Bhalawat, Vice-President, Reliance Retail; and Manish Daga, MD, P.R.D. Group of Companies, Cotton Guru.
