WEBINAR
HEREWEAR
If you're involved in the textile and clothing industry - as a small brand, scientist, designer, service provider, fablab, local organisation or student, join Cedecs-TCBL, partner of the HEREWEAR project, in the launch of the HUB on September 17th 2024 at 4pm CET.
The HEREWEAR HUB is a place where you can gain the skills and find resources that you can use to build and be part of a community based on the principles of bio-based, local and circular. The presentation will take place in an intimate Zoom call where you’ll be able to interact with the partners of the project, ask questions, and find out how this community can help you achieve your goals.
The HEREWEAR HUB will also be part of the presentation and workshop themes of the annual ECOSYSTEX conference on October 15-16 in Milan (reserved for partner organizations). More information in a future newsletter and, naturally, on the HEREWEAR and TCBL website and social networks.
