Work Experience
September 2020 - July 2021
Fashion for Good, Amsterdam
For my year in the industry, I completed an internship at the sustainable fashion innovation platform, Fashion for Good. Here, I worked on the Innovation Platform which aims to connect those working on sustainable innovation with brands, retailers and funders. As part of my role, I would look for innovations across the supply chain from raw materials through to the end of use, assessing their technical, commercial and environmental impact.
Other tasks would include assisting in the creation of due diligence reporting for Fashion for Goods corporate partners as well as hands-on support with the organisation of events organised by Fashion for Good.
