The e-P Summit, the annual Pitti Immagine event that is committed to creating a dialogue between companies and the digital world, which took place at the Stazione Leopolda in Florence, concluded with solid attendance and great satisfaction.

The Summit showcased over 30 exhibiting companies and a comprehensive program of presentations, roundtable discussions, and speeches. Guests shared their experiences and visions on the future of fashion and the growing importance of innovative technologies in this context. The caliber of the speakers, the valuable insights, and the participating companies attracted around 700 industry professionals to the Stazione Leopolda.

"The results and feedback collected confirm how the e-P Summit has become an essential event
for industry professionals," said Raffaello Napoleone, ceo of Pitti Immagine. "The Summit's high-quality content and concentrated networking function are what draw attendees. The innovative ideas and concrete solutions that emerged from these two days are critical for addressing the industry's challenges and demonstrate the importance of collaboration between
fashion and technology for sustainable development."

On stage and at exhibitor booths, the event addressed crucial topics such as sustainability, traceability, artificial intelligence, CRM, virtual brand identity, metaverse, and social shopping. In addition, attendees explored new trends and the most effective strategies to address market challenges, including the growing need for transparency and understanding of the latest technologies to enhance the consumer experience and create added brand value. And very positive feedback came in for the innovations presented at the Stazione Leopolda by the start-ups of the Innovation Call project organized in collaboration with the Fashion Technology Accelerator (FTA).

"e-P Summit once again demonstrated the uniqueness of its format, which combines the conference and exhibition-fair dimensions. Over 250 representatives of fashion and luxury companies followed the debates and analyzed the issues presented with exceptional quality by the speakers through specific roundtables and case studies brought on stage by the companies themselves. This confirms the Summit's role as a real 'think tank' for the industry," concluded Rinaldo Rinaldi, ceo of Pitti Immagine.
