"I believe that Fashion and Technology go hand in hand, and therefore they need each other.
The fashion world is undergoing disruptive changes due to rapid technological advances; also, fashion technology is growing at a faster pace with the advent of fashion tech products.
As a fashion entrepreneur, one must adapt by using technology innovations to connect more with consumers in a way that adds value to them, as well as increases revenue"- Kobi O. Mbagwu
