"I really appreciate the technology innovation going into fashion and lifestyle experiences. I’m a big believer that for brands technology can be the most important factor in the relationship for a consumer – especially in fashion, lifestyle, or health."
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 13, 2013
The event is co-sponsored by SAP, which is the provider of the My Runway mobile app, and the Art Institute of San Francisco. Organized by First Thursday Silicon Valley, the unique panel experience engages innovative and game-changing minds in fashion, business, media, and technology about how the definition of fashion is changing, and how brands leveraging technology to reach consumers may be leading above others.
Naima joins panel moderator and SAP senior product marketing manager Layla Sabourian as they explore engaging perspectives from the panelists: Forbes contributor and “lifecaster” Sarah Austin; SAP vice president of design and frontline applications and the visionary behind My Runway Li Gong; author, entrepreneur and publisher/editor of Adventures in the Stiletto Jungle Stephanie Rahlfs; and director of marketing at Levi Strauss & Co. Paul Friedland. Naima has been using My Runway and looking at the development of a mobile application for her own brand, Model Life ™.
