Founder Series: What Makes a Good Fashion Tech Idea with Beyond Form's CEO Peter Jeun Ho Tsang

Fashion Tech's Coming of Age

It's here, to close the Founder Series, Beyond Form's CEO, Peter Jeun Ho Tsang, finally shares his entrepreneurial journey. From growing up in fashion with his family's garment factories in China, to studying fashion and then eventually setting up his own companies, Peter has seen it all. In the search for life meaning lead Peter to uncover why and how the fashion industry was and is broken, and the potential of how technology can transform a $3 trillion industry. We find out in this episode the growth of fashion tech, signaling a transformative shift in designing, producing, and experiencing fashion.

The inception of Beyond Form and what it takes to build a fashion tech startup

The conversation highlights the void of tech and innovation in fashion compared to other industries and the challenges faced in persuading major fashion brands to embrace change. This fear has ripened the abundance for fashion tech around the world to come onto the market, everything from AI design, to re-commerce, digital fashion, and more. This is why Beyond Form exists. What does Peter believe which fashion tech will survive and what does he look for when deciding which startups to work with at Beyond Form? Find out in this episode.
