Katharina Sand

The Katharina Sand talks on technology and fashion discuss how the two industries can best come together to creative disruptive and artistic pieces. After graduating from London's Goldsmith College, she worked as a correspondent for the New York fashion scene for over five years.

In 2000, she opened her own boutique called SEPTIEME ETAGE in Geneva, Switzerland. She felt the home of international organizations, financial institutions and future leaders enrolled in boarding schools would benefit from the presence of fashion design. Currently the speaker is working on a book and digital project on the topic of disruptive retail.

The Katharina Sand talk positions fashion as an integral part of personal identity and an interface within human relationships.
