CONFERENCE OUTLINE
Innovation is a key factor to operating successfully in any market. Within the textile industry, the challenge for companies today lies in bringing to market a stream of new and improved, value-added products, in order to strengthen existing product lines, and diversify into new areas. Technology represents one critical route in doing so.
Recent advances in high added-value textiles which incorporate electronics, smart systems, are responsive or highly-functional; create opportunities to deliver new markets and improvements, to the textile industry. These developments are achievable via advances in science and technology, and collaborations between people from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines.
This Conference will present many new technologies set to dramatically change the face of the textile industry, with the advent of wearable electronics and devices, clothes that integrate images, monitor the state of your health, deliver ‘feel-good’ scents and aromas, are stay-clean and stay-fresh, and never require ironing!
