ITMF Opens Doors for Textile Startups
Dr. Mario Stucki, CEO said that “for start-ups and scale-ups it is important to be affiliated with organisations whose members are serving the international markets and have an excellent knowledge of the global market structures and the potential regional and global demand. Therefore, ITMF is an attractive platform that we can use and be an active part of.”
Dr. Christian Schindler, Director General of ITMF stated that “ITMF members had welcome very much the concept of inviting start-up companies to the Federation’s ITMF Annual Conference. Bringing together representatives of well-established textile organisations and companies with newcomers from around the world is mutually beneficial.
Start-ups bring a new perspective to existing challenges and offer new solutions applying new technologies. At the same time, they can connect with mature companies that know the markets very well. This interaction is beneficial for everyone involved and will help the textile industry to identify new technologies that help to overcome challenges.”
