Fashion Tech: the future of fashion

Long description:
With the arrival of digital and web 3.0, the fashion ecosystem is undergoing a fairly brutal revolution.
At the product level, clothing and accessories are beginning to integrate electronics. Retail is revolutionizing, sales in physical stores are collapsing while online sales are exploding.

Integration of electronics in clothing, connected clothing, (notifications to warn you in case of rain for example), "see now buy now", new influencers, social networks and new media, live shopping, acceleration of production and management of raw material purchases. Thanks to digital, of which social networks are the most emblematic marker, we are witnessing a revolution in the link between brands and consumers, showroom and live shopping rather than retail with stock, transparency of manufacturing methods, green fashion, second hand, ... What innovations and new solutions are emerging, what startups will be the fashion of tomorrow?

Challenge 3

Education Technology and Creative Industries

Long description:
New technologies are radically transforming the professions of the Creative Industries. On this subject more than any other, France must innovate and quickly!Nearly 85% of the professions of 2030 do not yet exist. All economic actors today have a requirement for rapid transformation of their learning methods to train students and employees, throughout their lives, for the jobs of tomorrow.
With the arrival of web 3.0 in particular, certain specialist profiles requiring strong technical skills (code development, robotics / automation, AI / data analysis, design, etc.) are already increasingly in demand by companies, with a shortage which, according to some experts, is estimated at more than 80,000 jobs.
In cinema, music, video games, production, ... the needs are immense.
How to adapt and develop new learning systems, new training (design, new writing, design of virtual worlds, transmedia, etc.) to better create tomorrow and strengthen our position of excellence.
Blended learning, e-learning/face-to-face combination, adaptive learning, artificial intelligence at the service of everyone and their learning cycle, experiential learning with virtual reality or serious games to develop cognitive and behavioral skills...?
The stakes are colossal. What are the best French innovations and startups in this field?

Expected Solutions:
- e-learning systems
- adaptive learning technologies
- artificial intelligence in education
- virtual reality learning
- new designs and platforms
- metaverse
