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.
