Selyn has been working with all three schools at London College of Fashion; Fashion Business School, School of Design and Technology and School of Media and Communication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Sri Lankan handloom industry faces major obstacles to growth with rising costs of production, limited access to world markets and an ageing artisan workforce. This has sadly resulted in many having to put down the loom and shuttle, to retire or look elsewhere for opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Selyn\u2019s Head of Business Development &amp; Director Selyna Peiris says, \u201cAn easy choice for us would have been to say, \u201chandloom is affected, there is no market for it anymore\u201d, call it quits and focus on other income streams for the business, but this would have left our handloom artisans at a serious disadvantage and would have been contrary to our commitment we have towards uplifting our community and the handloom sector at large. Instead, we saw this as the perfect opportunity to pivot, re-position and pitch Sri Lankan handloom in a very different way to a luxury premium market while using blockchain technology to bring greater transparency to the industry. Thanks to an initial funding from U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) as part of a Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Covid recovery fund, we were able to launch a new business vertical, Selyn Textiles, to reposition and gain market entry to the UK, Europe and the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61422 aligncenter lazyloaded\" src=\"http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" srcset=\"http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2.jpg 650w, http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2-300x177.jpg 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"383\" data-srcset=\"http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2.jpg 650w, http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2-300x177.jpg 300w\" data-src=\"http:\/\/island.lk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/LIFF-P-2-06-03-P-hgw-n-2.jpg\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">University of the Arts London are ranked 2nd in the world for Art and Design in 2021, much of this is attributed to their leading faculty, research, curriculum and forward-thinking approach to design whilst engaging students with global partnerships and opportunities. \u201cWe see this collaboration with Selyn as a fantastic opportunity to give our students a first-hand experience of how the industry works and explore alternative models of designing, business development and teamwork by co-creating across the supply chain and breaking silo mindsets\u201d, says Hannah Middleton Knowledge Exchange Lead at Fashion Business School at London College of Fashion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Sandra Wanduragala, Founder Chairman of Selyn explains that \u201cThis year is Selyn\u2019s 30th anniversary and we are honoured to be collaborating with the schools at London College of Fashion, one of the world\u2019s best creative schools to inspire the next generation of designers and to bring awareness to an ancient craft that is core to the Sri Lankan DNA.

Between us all we shared many discussions on the right opportunity, it was in the making for a long time but key to the initiative was Sri Lankan born UAL academic Dr Emmanuel Sirimal Silva. \u201cIt\u2019s such a pleasure and honour to connect the dots between bright creative minds and Sri Lankan heritage. Selyn is a brand with a social purpose that aligns with the values (people, planet, profit and purpose) underpinning Fashion Business School at London College of Fashion.
