'Welcome to another Mingle Mastermind Session! This is our Fourth Diversity in the Fashion Industry panel. This week\'s topic was “Why Your Vote Matters”  Are you a women-owned or minority-owned business? If so, please join us this week to discuss Diversity in the Fashion Industry: Why Your Vote Matters. Public policy plays a critical role in the everyday operation of a business, and your vote can affect whether or not opportunities are available for underserved communities and how we can tackle issues such as global warming and the impact the fashion supply chain has on the environment. If you think your vote doesn’t matter, you should listen to what our panelists have to say.
