At the 2025 Borås Textile Days in Sweden, Achim will deliver a keynote on sustainable and circular fashion business models and the Nordics’ role as a sustainability hub for the industry.

Despite early awareness of its environmental impact, fashion arrived late to actual sustainability commitments. Shifting to a circular economy is required for the industry to finally walk the talk.

We delved deeply into resale, exploring the challenges and opportunities of the secondhand market and how Sweden is uniquely positioned to be at the forefront of change. With a strong sustainability mindset, progressive regulation, modern resale concepts, pioneering companies and institutions such as theTextile Fashion Center, Sweden shows what’s possible when responsibility, innovation and research come together in fashion.

Back in Dubai for the Chalhoub Group’s in:sight summit, Achim had the pleasure of discussing the future of luxury in the GCC. The region’s economy is experiencing steady growth, fueled by robust GDP, low inflation, and rising consumer confidence. Furthermore, non-oil sectors are building momentum and the economic decoupling is gaining traction. The beauty sector continues to outperform, and while Dubai maintains its position as the region’s luxury hub, Saudi Arabia requires new models to unlock its full potential. Across the GCC, consumers are becoming true luxury connoisseurs who are globally minded and trend-savvy.
