The company offers software specialised in quantifying the environmental impact of the production chains of fashion companies

B-come is one of the 10 finalists of the Fashion StartUp Contest, an event organised by Modaes, Mango Startup Studio and Meta, which is celebrating its third edition this year. The company founded in 2019 by IED Barcelona BA in Fashion graduate Alba García, along with Anna Canadell, has established itself as one of the most promising emerging companies in the fashion sector.

B-come is a software specialised in quantifying the environmental impact of the production chains of fashion companies. Its forecasts for this year include consolidating its presence in the European market and making the leap to the United States. Before this, however, the company will find out if it has been awarded the accolade of the winning start-up, which will be announced on 30 March at the Fashion StartUp final.

The prize consists of receiving support and advice from Facebook to develop campaigns on this network and on Instagram, as well as a grant of 15,000 euros for the two social networks. The shortlisted companies will also become part of the pool of start-ups analysed by Mango StartUp Studio.

Good luck!
