On stage and in a new space in Amsterdam

Exciting things are happening at Kōan. From taking the stage at the BFA Sustainability Summit to moving into our new Amsterdam office, here’s a quick look at what’s new.

Kōan at the BFA summit

We’re delighted to share that our Strategic Director, Neil Smith, will deliver a keynote at the British Footwear Association (BFA) Summit on sustainability in the footwear industry in Birmingham.

The event brings together global experts to address some of the most pressing challenges facing the sector, with sessions covering sustainability legislation, AI and technology, materials innovation, and circularity.

Our participation reflects our continued commitment to shaping the conversation on sustainable practices across sectors. We’re looking forward to seeing how the footwear industry is advancing sustainability.

If you’ll be attending, be sure to say hello to Neil or join his talk, Footwear 2030: What’s Coming & How to Prepare.

Our new office in Amsterdam 

After searching for a new place to call home, we’ve found a great spot in the eastern part of central Amsterdam, on Schippersgracht. We look forward to welcoming colleagues, clients, and partners to our new space.
