About ISAIC
Before 2020, there was no organization in the U.S., and perhaps the world, who convenes, facilitates, and pilots new industry solutions for the sewn trades, while simultaneously training people to become the masters of those systems. ISAIC is developing a talent force that is valued and competitive. ISAIC aligns the critical components for successful pilots, while ensuring people benefit from economic upward mobility and prosperity. They then proliferate proven solutions that redefine the industry by eliminating low-skilled jobs, reducing waste, shortening production times, and making a new competitive true net cost for buyers. ISAIC is leading the industry to a transformed state where both people and industry are the beneficiaries of innovation and collaboration.
