Launchmart is a startup that recently concluded the Fashion Startup Incubator Program on IFA Paris’ campus. They are a digital marketplace and web-based platform that creates, buys, and sells customizable and production-ready 3D garments as downloadable "templates".

Launchmart provides and connects small-to-medium fashion brand owners with available pre-made resources, simple-to-use tools and a trustworthy network in order to fast-track their product's development process and launch to market faster with minimal cost and upfront risks.

As they are entering their next phase of expansion, they have joined forces with IFA Paris to create an exciting opportunity and collaborate with the talents of IFA Paris alumni and students to join them in their creative processes.
