influential international profiles from the many fields of smart
textiles, including special-made fibres, manufacturing and
finishing, nanotechnology, electronics and sustainability. The

a difference. The purpose is to join forces in reaching a vision
2020 for the textiles of the future.
For two days, the leading global experts and selected companies

clothing for work and recreation; life-saving textiles; textiles
that can improve our health and the environment; and textiles that
can make the everyday life easier for consumers
The Expert Summit will be the launch of a global network that
will set new standards for smart textiles.
