CANEX Presents Africa @ Portugal Fashion
The CANEX (acronym for Creative Africa Nexus) works as a growth platform for emerging African designers, providing them with the strengthening of skills through mentoring by Portuguese industry experts, as well as market access opportunities through specialized support in production, sales and distribution.
BLOOM is the platform for young Portuguese designers.
In the BLOOM space everything happens in a 'performative' way. The clothes are on display. It is a living installation. In addition to the fashion performances, concerts, DJ sets and artistic interventions take place in the BLOOM space as well. Through this crossing of different artistic expressions, BLOOM is intended to promote creativity as an essential value of contemporaneity in the most diverse areas, including the economic one.
