As the European Commission prepares to officially launch the “Textiles of the Future” Partnership under Horizon Europe, Textile ETP is organising a series of webinars designed to engage and prepare its members for the opportunities ahead.

Textile ETP published the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) for the "Textiles of the Future" European Partnership. The Partnership, officially announced by the European Commission in March 2024, is set to launch by the end of this year. It aims to support the textile sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), in implementing a comprehensive research and innovation program.
