April 20-22, 2026 ・ Portland, OR
Where Behavior Change Meets System Change.
From textile recycling to supply chain transparency, the sustainable apparel conversation has focused on nearly everything except the engine that drives the system: the consumer.
At SFF26, we’re changing that.
We’re putting consumer psychology at the center of sustainability, bridging the gap between systems change and behavior change.
Over three days in Portland, join global executives, sustainability leaders, behavioral scientists, and cultural forecasters to build a playbook grounded in the science of adoption.
Learn how to synchronize innovation with adoption and equip your team with actionable frameworks that align your sustainability targets with consumer reality. Move beyond "awareness" and drive the behavioral shifts necessary for sustainable systems to succeed.
The industry is building the systems for the future. At SFF26, we’re unlocking the behavior that fuels them.

SFF focuses on the adoption side. We are the only global forum dedicated to bridging the gap between systems change (what we build) and consumer behavior (how we get the market to buy it).
We don't just talk about innovation; we engineer the demand for it.
