In this episode, Allison Raley, AGG’s Women in Tech Law co-chair, is joined by Tia Robinson, TEDx speaker and founder of Vertical Activewear, to discuss how mindfulness, sustainability, and innovation are shaping the fashion and apparel industry. 

Allison and Tia explore the legal and business considerations behind launching Georgia’s first B Corp certified apparel manufacturer and how brands can implement strategic changes to meet growing ESG expectations. Tia also shares the inspiration behind her “10% Shift” concept, which encourages changes by consumers, brands, and manufacturers to reduce fashion waste and build a healthier ecosystem.
