THE GOOD CASHMERE CONFERENCE

IN-PERSON | HAMBURG | 25 – 26 March 2025



What does a model farm in Inner Mongolia actually look like? Join us on a virtual tour and learn more about the latest developments in sustainable cashmere. Animal welfare, artificial intelligence, biodiversity, and due diligence will be among the focus topics of the in-person, two-day Good Cashmere Conference 2025. It will be held in Hamburg, Germany, at AMERON Hamburg Hotel Speicherstadt, in close proximity to the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site of Speicherstadt in Hamburg.

Leaders and specialists in the field of sustainable cashmere production will share their expertise through panel discussions and breakout sessions.

This conference is designed for GCS partners, retailers, brands, cashmere producers, standards organisations, NGOs, and other members of the textile production chain. By participating, you will gain insights into current developments and trends in the industry and have the opportunity to exchange ideas with other stakeholders. The Good Cashmere Conference offers you a unique opportunity to network and deepen your knowledge.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in Hamburg!
