About Linda Bergskås
Linda Bergskås is the founder and director of Visionise, a Newcastle-based fashion design and manufacturing service for clothing brands. Visionise handles design work such as tech packs, prints and branding, and arranges production through partner factories in Indonesia, China, Poland and India; the company says it has helped more than 300 brands launch and grow.
After moving to Australia to complete a university degree, she started her own label, Guanabana, opening a boutique and setting up a factory in Bali. By 2011 the label had more than 100 Australian stockists and was preparing to show at Oslo Fashion Week. She sold the business after about nine years.
She told the story of Visionise, with operations manager Kara Armstrong, on Welcome to Day One with Adam Spencer in 2020.
