by JBDG | VALSAYN, Trinidad and Tobago | June 27, 2025

 

Jessel Brizan Design Group Ltd. (JBDG) proudly announces its selection to present at the prestigious Caribbean Investment Forum 2025 (CIF 2025). Hosted by the Caribbean Export Development Agency (CEDA), the Forum takes place from July 29 to 31, 2025, at the Montego Bay Convention Centre in Jamaica.

Now in its 2025 iteration, CIF is the region’s premier platform uniting global investors, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and innovators to fuel economic growth across priority sectors—sustainable agriculture, green economy transition, digital transformation, and logistics & transportation.

In submitting an investment-ready project aligned with CIF’s green economy transition, JBDG was selected from a competitive pool of regional initiatives. “We’re extremely honoured to be representing Trinidad and Tobago,” said Jessel Brizan, JBDG founder and managing director. “This opportunity allows us to highlight our mission to redefine the Caribbean fashion supply chain by driving sustainability and to secure strategic partnerships that can scale our environmental, economic, social, cultural, and regional impact.”

JBDG will be presenting a unique and innovative project that promises to be a transformative opportunity by addressing a critical gap in the Caribbean fashion industry. With a focus on sustainability, accessibility, and empowering local artisans, the project is hailed as the Caribbean’s first omnichannel sustainable solution, combining innovations, such as digital textile printing and garment-to-garment (G2G) recycling, with eco-friendly textiles and materials.

According to JBDG, the project aims to reduce textile waste, minimise water and chemical consumption, and lower the carbon footprint while fostering a culture of sustainability. It will contribute to the local and regional economy through developing a sustainable fashion supply chain, creating jobs, supporting local artisans and businesses, and promoting economic diversification.

In addition to keynote addresses, CIF offers deal-making sessions, project showcases, live presentations, investor matchmaking, and panel integration. “We are hoping to partner with like-minded investors and governments to propel sustainable fashion as a growth engine for regional creativity, environmental responsibility and economic development,” added Brizan. “Ultimately, our goal is to position the Caribbean as a regional leader in sustainable fashion in alignment with the national and regional agenda for sustainability and climate action.”
