PCIAW® SUMMIT | Q&A WITH CYNDI RHOADES

The scope of the textile and professional clothing industry means that the issue of sustainability has long been a problem with a dire need for a solution. As one of the largest industries in the world, the professional clothing trade body has a responsibility to practice sustainability wherever possible. Using sustainable practices means that businesses in the workwear, corporate clothing, PPE and many more, can have a substantial effect on the world environmentally, economically and socially. The benefits aren’t only outside of the businesses as sustainable practices also usually mean reduced costs. The PCIAW® considered it vital to have an expert on the issue of sustainability presenting at the PCIAW® Summit on the 18th June 2019, at the Montcalm Marble Arch, London. We are therefore delighted to announce Cyndi Rhoades, CEO of Worn Again Technologies, will be presenting on ‘A circular future for the Professional Clothing Supply Chain is on the horizon’. With Cyndi and her team’s intense determination to find a solution to the problem of textile waste, Cyndi’s presentation will raise awareness of the issue of sustainability within the planet and how professional clothing businesses can make the change to more sustainable practices. What drove Cyndi to seek improvement in regards to textile waste through the supply chain of the industry? Cyndi began her career as a filmmaker in music videos and documentaries which over time evolved into a deep interest in the impacts of commerce and global economics on society and the environment.

“Thank you very much for your participation in ChangeNOW ! Your energy and your inspiring talk contributed to make this second edition of ChangeNOW a success beyond our expectations. The summit has gained international recognition in less than 2 years, not only because we all share a high concern for positive impact, but also because solutions do exist. They sometimes simply need to be highlighted and interconnected to make a real change. For good. Hence the large smiles we enjoyed over those 2 special days.”
