Forum

The BFW Forum is composed of spaces for the generation and dissemination of specialized content that are built from the experience of various references not only from Colombia but from around the world.  
Through 10 conversations, the curator of this space, Rocio Arias Hofman, converges through the concept of sustainability that Bogota Fashion Week - BFW proposes for this edition, but focusing on the premise of lasting solutions for fashion businesses, which is part of the 7 of the 10 Sustainable Development Goals.
In these conversations we will have inspiring guests that will be essential for the fashion sector. Artists and actresses who have experience in the relationship and aesthetic construction, as well as entrepreneurs who have transcended internationally to give participating brands and designers tools for internationalization.
