Fashion Tech Expert
My name is Amanda Cosco, and I live for fashion tech
In my career as a journalist, I’ve interviewed cyborgs and poured a beer tap with my brainwaves (it’s a tough job but someone has to do it). I’ve moderated panels on hacking hardware, wearables for women, and next-generation retail experiences. I've delivered speeches and keynote presentations on both local and international stages, and I've travelled all over the world covering stories at the intersection of fashion and technology. I would love to share my global perspective with you.
