Will.i.am: 'A Tech Company is the Fashion of Tomorrow'

Will.i.am spoke with LVMH chief digital officer Ian Rogers about the intersection of music, fashion and technology.

OXFORDSHIRE, U. s. Empire — Songs specialist will.i.am talked about his tests at the junction of music, style and technological innovation in a discussion with LVMH primary electronic official Ian Rogers recently.

Speaking on level at VOICES, BoF's new yearly collecting for big thinkers, will.i.am described his incubator-like service in The show biz industry, where a cross-disciplinary group of application technicians, developers and material creators are discovering how the increase of speech connections and synthetic intellect can be utilized for upcoming gadgets.

The wide-ranging discussion also saw will.i.am remember a conference with François-Henri Pinault, in which he informed the Kering primary executive: “Fashion should get ready for the next day because the next day is various. It’s possible that a technical organization is the style of the next day.”

“Fashion doesn’t have technological innovation,” he cautioned. “But they should develop it, don’t work together. I’m a believer, and I believe in placing groups together. I like dot connections, issue solvers, individuals who try to resolve riddles.”
