The absolute excellence of the yarns and materials exhibited at Filo has made the fair an undisputed benchmark in the international trade fair scene. Booths show innovative, high-quality collections that enhance the creativity of those who will use them to produce fabrics and finished garments.<\/p>\n
However, Filo also plays another role, stimulating encounters and exchanges between producers and their customers and, more generally, between textile and fashion professionals, wherever they are located along the supply chain.
\nThat\u2019s why, at each edition, Filo gives floor to paramount topics for textile\u2019s future, in the round table of the opening ceremony as well in the \u201cDialoghi di Confronto\u201d held over the two days of the fair. The \u201cDialoghi di Confronto\u201d talks feature leading figures in the industry and particularly interesting company case histories, focusing on highly topical issues such as sustainable production, cutting-edge technologies and responsible innovation in textile.<\/p>\n
At the 64th edition of Filo, the agenda of \u201cDialoghi di Confronto\u201d proposes seven meetings, ranging from the search for new materials to the digitalisation of companies, including conscious communication.
