eBIZ 4.0: the new step of the eBIZ initiative

A common language beyond borders

eBIZ is the European public private initiative pursuing the use and greater interoperability of digital communication across the fashion industry supply chain.

Why a standard language?

Reducing costs, erase errors and save time. A common language facilitates any company to set up data exchange with the new clients or suppliers, and improve quality of collaboration.

How does it work?

The company’s usual IT suppliers or other IT specialists consult the eBIZ Reference Architecture – a technical guiding document – and related online resources to create new or update existing connections with customers and suppliers.
