PROTOTYPE 2027 at IFA

In 2027, PROTOTYPE returns for a new edition in partnership with IFA Paris, which will host the event. Together, they open a space of inspiration and experimentation where fashion goes beyond clothing to explore new territories: contemporary materials, technologies, gestures and know-how.

At the crossroads of manufacturing heritage and tomorrow's creation, PROTOTYPE values the ideas and collaborations that shape tomorrow's creative industries.

Why Exhibit?

Have you developed a material, a new way of doing things, of producing?
Have you experienced a process, hijacked know-how, hybridized techniques, increased secular gestures?
Did you conduct transdisciplinary research, collaborate on the creation of new development paths?
Have you explored a new use or answered a contemporary issue?

This is the time and place to share your results with professionals and decision makers in all sectors.
