Doha: M7, Qatar’s hub for innovation and entrepreneurship in design, fashion, and technology, has announced the launch of a specialized training program in sustainability and strategic innovation. The program, held in collaboration with the Swedish Fashion Council (SFC), will take place from November 2 to 5, 2025, at M7’s headquarters.

According to Qatar News Agency, the initiative aims to empower designers and entrepreneurs in the fashion sector by enhancing their skills in sustainable practices, strategic planning, and brand development. It features hands-on workshops, case studies, and interactive sessions led by international experts.

Participants will explore market trends, consumer behavior, and methods for integrating sustainability as a driver of creativity and competitiveness. Each day blends practical skill-building with strategic thinking in an immersive and interactive learning experience tailored to the realities of the fashion industry.

Key topics include global fashion industry trends, Sweden’s sustainability model, strategies for building sustainable brands, and international business frameworks. Applicants are required to have foundational experience in fashion, whether through academic study, internships, or professional work, and basic knowledge of sustainable fashion practices.

The program welcomes participants currently leading or working with emerging brands, as well as individuals planning to launch their own labels, provided they demonstrate a strong interest in developing practical sustainability skills. This training is part of M7’s specialized learning series designed to advance the creative community’s capabilities in Qatar.

It coincides with the “Nation of Evolution” campaign organized by the “Qatar Creates” initiative, celebrating 20 years since the founding of Qatar Museums and 50 years since the launch of the National Museum of Qatar.
