Building a sustainable textile sector: solutions for developing circularity

This side event focuses on solutions for developing circularity in the textile sector. It brings textile companies from the Netherlands and Finland to the WCEF2019. The aim is to help the formation of new circular business partnerships between Finnish and Dutch companies. Come and hear about innovations in the Dutch and Finnish textile sector and learn about the companies offering their solutions or new business partnerships for tackling circular economy challenges. After a short pitching session, the participants will have the chance for one-on-one conversations and networking.
