VP BRAND ACTIVATION STOCKX
STREET CULTURE
The urbanwear trend has grown to become one of the most important in the market. Influenced by American hip-hop icons, the look shapes the street styles of metropolises
around the world. Limited edition collections are gaining awareness in the market, drawing an ever-increasing community to all the places where these rare pieces are marketed
both online and offline. We are looking forward to welcoming Tom Woodger of StockX, one of the biggest online stock markets for cult streetwear items.
