The summit will be held on July 22, this will be the third time Première Vision has organized the sustainability panel, which was first held last September at Première Vision Paris and then in October at Première Vision Shanghai. Moving from its longtime home at the Metropolitan Pavilion and Altman Building, Première Vision Preview New York will have more than 300 exhibitors representing high-end European and international textile mills. Première Vision’s textile print and surface design show, Indigo New York, will also be held concurrently at Pier 92 in New York.
