Project description
Pioneering projects in the smart textile business
Smart textile technology has a wide range of uses in the industry, which is poised to improve quality and meet consumer-specific demands. However, there is a lack of connection between smart textile technology and market demand. The EU-funded smartX project is stitching a new industrial value chain composed of textile SMEs and start-up firms, designers, advanced technology actors, textile market agents and investment funding. smartX is financing 40 pioneering projects focusing on the end market of protective and healthcare clothing as well as industrial solutions. These pioneering projects will be supported by an open collaboration platform that will facilitate the construction of smart textiles value chains creating new value and employment chances.
