During my participation in the Columbia Global Centers Amman x Building Blocks Entrepreneurship workshop, I engaged in enriching discussions, listened to insightful guest speakers, and collaborated with peers to create and pitch a business idea to potential investors. My group focused on addressing the global issue of waste in the fashion industry, particularly from fast fashion and the limited recycling of clothing.
Our pitch, Conscious Closet, proposed an AI-driven system to promote eco-friendly shopping habits. Customers would earn points for returning used clothing, which could then be recycled or donated to underserved communities. These points could be redeemed as discounts at partnered sustainable fashion brands, second-hand stores, or even local retailers supporting eco-conscious initiatives. The collection process would be streamlined through AI-powered bins that sort and classify garments, creating a seamless experience that fosters sustainability while rewarding responsible consumption.
