CIFF, Northern Europe’s leading fashion trade event, announces a strategic partnership with Delogue to launch TechCreate, a new initiative bridging the gap between fashion and technology. The collaboration marks a long-term commitment to spotlight innovation, not just during the CIFF fair in January, but through ongoing digital activations including a webinar on 26 November and a dedicated CIFF Media series rolling out through spring 2026.
TechCreate will debut physically at CIFF 66, held January 27–29, 2026, in Copenhagen.
The new area will unite fashion brands and technology providers in a dynamic shared space, showcasing how digital tools, sustainability data, and workflow optimization are redefining the industry’s creative and commercial processes.
The initiative is developed in collaboration with Delogue, a Danish-born tech company whose PLM platform has become a key operational backbone for global fashion and lifestyle brands, alongside leading tech partners including tex.tracer, TRIMIT, E-SCM, and Fashion Cloud. Together, these companies represent a powerful ecosystem driving transparency, connectivity, and innovation across the entire fashion value chain.
By integrating technology storytelling directly into CIFF’s physical and digital universe, TechCreate seeks to inspire both established and emerging brands to evolve through data, design, and collaboration. “With TechCreate, we are moving beyond displaying collections - we are displaying innovation,” says Sofie Dolva, Director of CIFF.

The collaboration between CIFF and Delogue is built around shared values of
transparency, innovation, and education.
