Over 100 designers and brands are presenting at multiple events across the city

New York Fashion Week has returned to the Big Apple.

According to the Council of Fashion Designers of America, 109 designers and brands are presenting during the industry’s biannual global event that’s currently underway.

As one of the most watched fashion events in history, it’s not surprising that

New York Fashion Week is able to generate an economic boom for the Empire State.

While that’s not surprising since it is one of the most watched fashion events in history—what is surprising is how big of a boom it creates for the Empire State. In recent years, the event has brought in $887 million dollars annually.

The fashion industry came to a screeching halt as did many other business sectors during the global pandemic. For many designers like Charles and Ron—of Malta’s leading fashion house—they are finally back in New York to present their Spring/Summer 2023 runway show.

“Obviously very exciting for us because it had been more than two-and-a-half years since we were in New York obviously due to the pandemic, so it was extra special to be back,” says Ron Van Maarschalkerweerd Borg.

“All of our collections are always inspired by Malta and the Mediterranean—we’re based in Malta—and we always draw inspirations for our surroundings.”

SpaceX’s upcoming IPO could raise $25 billion and value the company over $1 trillion, igniting investor excitement for Mars missions.


Investors are buzzing as SpaceX gears up for a potential IPO, aiming to raise more than $25 billion, possibly as soon as June. The offering could value the company at over $1 trillion, fueling Musk’s ambitious plans for Mars and beyond.

Despite the high-risk nature of space ventures, demand from retail investors is expected to be strong. Experts predict this IPO could become historic, with the company’s market value potentially soaring past $2 trillion once it launches.

Musk’s unconventional management style hasn’t slowed investor enthusiasm, even amidst regulatory hurdles. The funds raised could also support groundbreaking innovations, including energy-efficient space data centers.

Disney invests $1 billion in OpenAI for AI-generated videos featuring iconic characters, enhancing fan interactions and launching in 2026.


Disney is taking AI to the next level, investing $1 billion in OpenAI to create a licensing deal that allows users to generate videos featuring more than 200 characters from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar. This partnership could redefine how fans interact with their favorite characters.

The deal will let users stream short AI-generated videos directly on Disney+, and ChatGPT will also produce images of Disney’s licensed characters. However, the agreement excludes talent likenesses or voices, keeping human performances separate.

Set to launch in 2026, the collaboration also gives Disney warrants to purchase additional OpenAI equity and use AI tools for product development, opening doors to new creative opportunities.
