Ningbo fashion economy steps into a new journey of development. On the afternoon of January 16, the first “Fashion Economy” Seminar of Ningbo was held in Jiangbei District. 300 people from the relevant industry associations, research institutions and fashion business attended the seminar. During the seminar, China Textile Engineering Institute Ningbo Workstation was inaugurated.
Fashion industry is a high creative, high market controlled and high value-added new industry format which can lead the consumer trends. On the basis of the existing industrial base and future development trend, Zhejiang Province has chosen a group of fashion industries with large drive and fast growth as the key development areas, including apparel industry, leather products industry, fashionable household goods industry, jewelry and makeup industry, electronics industry and so on. Under the theme of “Fashion Ningbo”, Ningbo is following the development road of combing manufacture and market and strengthening the docking of local market and international fashion. Ningbo is vigorously developing a variety of fashion products and related services to form a multi dimension fashion industry system and a “popular trend” industrial chain of “fast fashion”. Ningbo is striving to build a number of famous Ningbo brands and build Ningbo into a nationally renowned fashion city.
In recent years, the fashion and culture industry in Jiangbei District continues to expand its scale, its fashion and culture brands becoming more and more mature. Jiangbei Old Bund and Creative 1956 Fashion Cultural Industry Park attracted businesses to settle in Jiangbei, improving the level of industrial agglomeration. “The settlement of China Textile Engineering Institute Ningbo Workstation in Jiangbei marks that Jiangbei has a high-level and professional specialized platform to contact with the country and the world fashion industry. The fashion economic development platform will further promote the construction of the Old Bund culture and fashion circles and promote the fashion industry development of Jiangbei District.” Jiangbei District principal leaders said.
This seminar is sponsored by Ningbo Municipal Development and Research Center, Jiangbei District Government and Zhejiang Fashion Institute of Technology, presented by Jiangbei Bureau of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television and Ningbo Institute of Fashion Economy Research. Zhang Qinghui, Vice Chairman and General Secretary of China Fashion Association made a keynote speech on fashion economy and the development of the fashion industry.
