Can Denmark Lead the Textile Transition – and What Will It Take?

Why is a national action plan for textiles critical?How can a National Action Plan for Textiles drive reduction for both the public and private sector and for civil society and the population as a whole?What barriers need to be overcome?The debate will be divided into two parts:In the first part, the secretariat behind the forthcoming National Action Plan for textiles, will introduce the three tracks and the supporting initiatives in the action plan.In the second part, panelists representing the public- and private sector and civil society, will be invited to share their perspective on and expectations for the forthcoming National action Plan for textiles.Additional questions:What is the primary problem that the forthcoming National Action Plan for Textiles (NHPT) is meant to solve - climate impact, waste, competitiveness, or consumer culture?Is the broad involvement of stakeholders a strength – or does it risk watering down the ambitions?When we stand here in 2028 – what should be measurably different for the NHPT to be considered a success?Is the NHPT a time-limited project – or the beginning of a more permanent prioritization of transforming the Danish textile and fashion sector?Speakers:Anette Juhl, Director, TRACEBetina Simonsen, CEO, Lifestyle and Design ClusterElse Skjold, Associate Professor, PhD, The Royal Danish AcademyMarie Busck, Chief Sustainability Officer, Dansk Mode & TextilCecilie Førby, Head of Procurement and Contract Management, Odense MunicipalityMette Hoffgaard Ranfelt, Chief Advisor for Environmental Policy, The Danish Society for Nature ConservationSigne Tholstrup, CEO, MiniatureModerator:Jonas Eder-Hansen, Project manager

LDC: Data til Business: Fra compliance til konkurrencekraftHvordan går vi fra at se det digitale produktpas som en administrativ byrde – til at bruge det som løftestang for forretningsudvikling?I denne paneldebat sætter vi fokus på, hvordan data, sporbarhed og digitale produktpas kan blive startskuddet til nye cirkulære forretningsmodeller – og styrke virksomhedernes konkurrenceevne.EU’s krav om transparens og dokumentation ændrer spillereglerne. Men de virksomheder, der formår at arbejde strategisk med data, kan skabe langt mere end compliance:• stærkere kunderelationer• nye service- og indtægtsmodeller• bedre ressourceudnyttelse• øget værdi gennem reparation, resale og levetidsforlængelsePanelet samler virksomheder, der allerede arbejder konkret med digitalisering, DPP og cirkulær omstilling – og som deler deres erfaringer med barrierer, potentialer og forretningsmæssige gevinster.Moderator:@Mikkel Frost, PlussPaneldeltagere:Bekræftet- Kristina Vigen, Sports Group- June Harrild, by Green Cotton eller Sanne Nørgaard, by Green Cotton- @Heidi Bøjlesen, Holmris B8- @Signe Marie Bakka Backhaus
