EIT Culture & Creativity will host an official event during Paris Fashion Week 2026 on circular fashion and business transformation - Beyond Adaptation: The Shift to Circular Practices.
Taking place on 2 March 2026, 09:30 - 20:00 CET, at Atelier Néerlandais, the event will explore the future of fashion through collaboration, circular business model innovation, and environmental responsibility, embodying the values of the New European Bauhaus (NEB).
This marks the conclusion of the first edition of the NEB Fashion Adaptor, a pioneering training programme that has supported 12 emerging and independent fashion brands in transitioning to circular and sustainable business models:
- ADIRELOUNGE (France)
- Nora Anis (Romania)
- Cosmo (Georgia)
- CHEZ NOUS (France)
- HACOY (Germany)
- ID Eight (Italy)
- Martan (The Netherlands)
- KentroyYearwood (The Netherlands)
- Moe (Sweden)
- Rifo (Italy) (unable to participate in the event)
- Stribor (Bosnia and Herzegovina)
- Tatoshka (Ukraine)
Attendees will hear directly from 11 of the participating the brands on how they are rethinking traditional production, business and consumption models - and what it takes to transition to circular practices.
The event will also announce the next phase of the NEB Fashion Adaptor programme, opening new pathways for brands and stakeholders to join EIT Culture & Creativity's growing ecosystem.
Throughout the day, designers, industry leaders, and innovators will come together for discussions and open exchange to build partnerships that drive innovation and lasting change in fashion.
