The Pilot 1 and 2 working groups have worked closely and intensively throughout the spring. Both teams have taken their own prototype forward with enthusiasm, and as a result of their work, the final seminar of the project has already presented the concrete results.

The Pilot 1 group was already in April with their own prototype. During the mid-spring meeting, we jumped and got a feel for the pilot’s models and the material options to be used in real life. There was enthusiasm and a good feeling at the meeting – the atmosphere was downright electric.

The Pilot 2 group has also been working rapidly throughout the spring, and the result was an interesting presentation about the birth of a textile product from its very beginnings through the production chain. The key issues are the transparency of textile production, the diverse information of which is made transparent all the way to the user of the product.

Work on the pilots and the entire project will continue until the end of August.
