On the occasion of Milan Women's Fashion Week, White Milano trade show will host its first RLC Fashion Summit at Mudec on September 25. The RLC Fashion Summit aims to convene a new kind of conversation, one that moves beyond creativity and collections to confront the structural shifts and strategic development priorities redefining the business of fashion on a global scale.

The RLC Fashion Summit is the definitive annual strategic forum for the fashion industry, hosted by the world’s most trusted platform for global retail. In a world where influence, innovation, and demand are rapidly shifting, the inaugural RLC Fashion Summit will explore the structural forces reshaping the global fashion economy. From the ascent of new geographies and retail ecosystems to the reinvention of operating models and supply chain resilience, this exclusive summit convenes leaders across luxury, fashion, retail, investment, and policy to decode what’s next and who will lead it.

Set against the backdrop of the Milan Fashion Week and hosted at the iconic Mudec – Museo delle Culture, the event will bring together international and national voices to identify the Forces of Tomorrow and examine the reconfiguration of growth, consumer flows, and competitive advantage driving this multi-trillion-dollar global industry.

"This event, which until now has only been held in New York and Dubai, and which has now chosen Milan, is a moment of discussion aimed at finding a decisive step towards building an increasingly stronger, more dynamic, and innovation-oriented international network that strengthens the future of fashion," said Brenda Bizzi, ceo of M. Seventy, the company which owns the White trade show. "The conference will be a moment dedicated to retail and its supply chain, to preserve Made in Italy, which is under attack from fashion imports from India and China. The global industry is at a rare turning point, and this summit offers a space to address these changes openly, collaboratively, and with the urgency they require."

The key Themes of the Summit will be New Geographies & Demand Flows (The shifting map of global opportunity, and what it means for expansion, relevance, and access); Al, Tech & Supply Chain Resilience (Leveraging intelligence and infrastructure to navigate volatility and scale operational agility); Value & Influence in a Fragmented Economy (Decoding how brands create meaning, drive loyalty, and retain power amid economic divergence).
