At a crossroads of environmental challenge and opportunity, the world must choose between sustainability and the destructive path we’re on. Recognizing this urgency, India, under Prime Minister Modi’s leadership, launched Mission LiFE at COP26, a commitment to lead by example. Inspired by India’s rich heritage of sustainability woven into daily life, Mission LiFE aims to shape a better future.
This conference, driven by the spirit of Mission LiFE, amplifies the power of entrepreneurship in fashion and business studies to build a sustainable world. By bringing together researchers, academics, professionals, and students, we explore the intertwining threads of entrepreneurship, sustainability, and cultural integration. This collective journey celebrates how ancient wisdom informs present-day solutions while emphasizing the critical role of collective action in driving global change.
