The attendees will then be guided by sustainability expert Mr Karl Borgschulze, to explore exhibitors who have passed the Econogy Check, which is a stringent third-party audit that checks the suppliers’ sustainability certificates.

At the Sustainability Forum (13:30 – 16:00), participants will be able to discover insights and practical case studies, featuring experts from academia and well-known brands, led by Dr Guoxiang Yuan, Graduate Supervisor of Donghua University and Research Fellow of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
