Masterclass: Innovation in Circular & Biobased Textiles (2022-2023)

The Textile ETP, in collaboration with STFI (DE), RISE (SE), Centexbel (BE), and Centrocot (IT) launched a new European Masterclass in Spring 2022, focusing on Innovation in Circular & Biobased Textiles.

The 20-month learning journey provided state-of-art knowledge, presented by key technology and innovation leaders. Five thematic modules covered through monthly webinars, two in-person workshops, and a closing conference.

Besides gaining knowledge, understanding market, and regulatory trends, projects, tech trends, and strategies, the Masterclass also provided the opportunity to network with companies and experts in the field, from all across Europe.
