This week, we’re excited to share one of the most important moments of #FSFLive: our FSF Finalists’ on-stage presentations! Each of our four Finalists had a chance to speak directly to the audience about how their paths had led them to that very moment at the Gala in NYC, and how their childhoods, educational journeys, and lifelong passions inspired their top-scoring Case Studies.

First up: Madison-Jade Bishop (@madisonjbishop), a Drexel University senior whose Merchandising Case Study, “Redefining Comfort,” focused on Ugg and Marriott collaborating to create a new category of cozy luxury, merging comfort with world class hospitality. Watch as she shares how her childhood love of skating and her parents’ encouragement and support led her to the development of her Case Study, created to bridge the gap between how products are designed and how they’re experienced.

Thank you to the members of our community who joined us for “From Soles to Leadership,” our most recent “Post-Modern” Talk focusing on the footwear space. Swipe for takeaways from one of our panelists, Ricardo Lajoie, Chief Merchant, Vans, who shared this memory of the late Virgil Abloh:

“I remember after one of his DJ sets, we had a conversation that stayed with me. He talked about not waiting for permission but just starting to build your ideas in public. That really shifted how I approached things.”
