Some of the participants





"I did not know the field of textile recycling, its stakes, its actors before being integrated in the TFO program. Despite this, in a few months and with minimal involvement on my part, thanks to the method implemented by SoScience, I was able to understand the industry, create a consortium of industrialists and academic researchers and set up a technology evaluation project funded by Refashion. Without this perfectly oiled process, I think exploring the uses of innovative optical sensors in textile recycling would have been much more time consuming and expensive."

"A big thank you for the mapping of actors and the opportunity to connect"
