Northern Europe’s biannual fashion trade show, The Copenhagen International Fashion Fair (CIFF) has entered into a major strategic partnership with Danish technology firm Delogue to launch ‘TechCreate a CIFF Collaboration.’ This initiative is designed to bridge the gap between fashion and technology, making its physical debut at CIFF 66, running from January 27–29, 2026, in Copenhagen.
The initiative is built on three key pillars. The first was a webinar held on November 26, where stakeholders discussed how technology can boost creativity, optimize production, and improve industry transparency.
The second, and most prominent pillar, is the dedicated TechCreate physical space at CIFF 66. This immersive exhibition area will host demonstrations, talks, and collaborations exploring the future of design, production, distribution, and sustainability. CIFF aims to emphasize the vital role of digital tools, sustainability data, and workflow optimization in both the creative and commercial processes of the industry.
The final pillar involves a continuous content series on CIFF Media, the fair's digital platform, featuring interviews, trend analyses, and conversations with leading innovators.
