The importance of sustainability in the textile industry and all other sectors is growing. In order to maintain a ‘license to operate’, it is crucial to act. The implementation of sustainability does not only enable risk minimization, but also enhances innovation and offers great opportunities.
If you are curious about how to implement sustainability and how to transform an industry, listen to the latest “Business of Collaboration” podcast episode by “collabwith” with our CEO Karin Ekberg.
Karin was interviewed by Jara Pascual, the founder of “collabwith”. The podcast takes the approach of encouraging collaboration and communication amongst business executives and professors to work together for a positive impact.
Learn more about the importance of innovation, the future of sustainability, our CEO’s professional path and get some exclusive advice on how to implement and improve your business’s sustainability strategy.
Karin shares plenty of tips with you in the podcast about where to start when implementing a new sustainability strategy:
- Prioritize

The Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) and their Higg Index can support you in doing that, as Karin explains:
