“Young generations of customers today seek fashion with a purpose, the integration of craftsmanship and technology allows tradition and innovation to merge into a single paradigm, while traditionally product-driven companies are becoming more experience-focused.
Although the fashion and design business landscape rapidly evolves, one thing stays still: companies that want to make their business competitive are constantly looking for competent talents. I pledge to offer you a full-time master’s program that combines creativity with a strong and rigorous managerial approach, making the MAFED experience an unforgettable life-changing journey.”
