21 September 2023
FOCUS ON INNOVATION

Innovation and sustainable development have sometimes been considered as two antagonistic principles; they must now be fully associated to ensure the viability of the company. In this context, neglecting sustainable innovation when creating products, services and equipment would be a mistake that could lead to turning one's back on the future.


22 September 2023
FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY

The integration of sustainability in all its dimensions is no longer an option for the global footwear industry. It is a pressing and urgent necessity. It is also an opportunity for companies to find new sources of competitiveness and attractiveness. The keynote speech addresses this topic from general and specific perspectives.
