SAC’s Annual Meeting at the Textile Sustainability Conference

Join us virtually for the SAC Annual Meeting or in Dublin, Ireland for the Textile Sustainability Conference

“The SAC is unlike any other organization changing the world. In the past ten years, we’ve overcome a tipping point. Normally outside, our companies are competitors. Here we’re all sitting at the same table and changing the climate impact of our industry. I’ve never seen this in any other industry, where people sit around one table and really focus on what needs to be done.”

 The SAC’s annual meeting will now be part of Textile Exchange’s annual Textile Sustainability Conference in 2021. The SAC meeting will be a full day of content and networking on Wednesday, November 10th (AMER/EMEA) & November 11th (APAC). Following the day-long SAC meeting on the 10th, attendees will have the opportunity to join the rest of the Textile Sustainability Conference the following week, led by Textile Exchange, at a discounted rate.

As part of our continued work with our Alliance organizations (Aii, Textile Exchange, and ZDHC), we’re pleased to announce this partnership with Textile Exchange to increase access to industry content, streamline member travel in another unprecedented year, and offer greater value to our members through a coordinated experience. 

This joint effort will allow us to accelerate impact and drive efficiencies for the industry, and it’s one of the first proof points in our broader Alliance partnership vision. Although it was our deepest wish to meet in person, the transition to a virtual format provides us with an opportunity to make the event more accessible and to welcome a greater number of global participants. We look forward to uniting our global community together this November!

Thank you to our sponsors:
