This online event will be the 15th public dissemination webinar of ECOSYSTEX. EU-funded projects focussing on textile sustainability present their work and share their findings/progress. It will take place on Friday 13 June 2025, 10:00-11:35 CET.
This edition highlights four exciting projects funded by the Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE-JU) - all pushing the boundaries of sustainability and circularity in bio-based textiles. We will kick off with a warm welcome from Simone Maccaferri, Project Officer at the CBE-JU, followed by expert speakers sharing progress, insights, and results from their ground-breaking initiatives.
