Fashion Pitch 3 is back

MyCreative Ventures Sdn. Bhd. (MyCreative) continues its effort in supporting local fashion designers by launching Fashion Pitch 3, an initiative to provide fashion enthusiasts the opportunity to pitch their creativity and aspirations to run a fashion business. Those selected shall be qualified to apply for loans with MyCreative up to RM2 million each.

Fashion Pitch is held to boost the attractiveness of Malaysia’s fashion industry as well as to increase gross income from Malaysia’s fashion industry to significantly contribute to the country’s economy. Applicants must be Malaysian citizen, aged 18 years old and above and have the passion for fashion. Fashion Pitch 3 is also open to existing fashion labels or start-up businesses. The application ends on 27 March 2014.

According to Johan Ishak, the Chief Executive Officer of MyCreative, “Fashion is a business and MyCreative wants to help fashion businesses to grow by providing the necessary financing that conventional banking sector may not venture into. We are passionate to see the rise of local entrepreneurs for the sake of the national economy.”

Prior to Fashion Pitch 3, MyCreative has already organised Fashion Pitch for two (2) consecutive years and the response has been overwhelming. Through the pitches done, MyCreative had awarded RM5.9 mllion worth of loans to 7 of the successful candidates.

MyCreative will team up with Malaysia’s renowned fashion designers to act as a panel judges during the ‘Pitch Day’ that is scheduled in April 2015. “This is the interesting part where business owners can get useful advices from the experts of the industry, added Johan”
