The CO Product Board
The fashion industry has been hard hit by Covid-19, with especially stark impact for suppliers and the families they support across the developing world. Having recently closed a crowd raise for CO we are now focused on developing functionality on CO that will help our members to thrive, sustainably, as we emerge from the pandemic. As part of this, we are launching a product board that will connect virtually, to advise on and support our next steps. If you are passionate about building a better fashion industry, and interested in joining a small group of change makers, we would love you to apply.
We are looking for leaders and practitioners with experience within suppliers, manufacturers or brands, as well as expertise in B2B fashion tech and content.
Board members will have the opportunity to meet and work with other leaders and experts, have an inside view on the work of Common Objective, and contribute to our impact. We recognise the value of your time and input from an advisory perspective and hope to offer board members value in return through liaison with each other, our network, and the work of CO.
Participation the CO Product Board is voluntary, however we can be flexible in relation to time implication/ level of commitment.
