In this episode, we talked with Ana Ribeiro, Executive Director of the Portuguese Textile Cluster: Technology and Fashion. The Textile Cluster aims to establish win-win relationships among the cluster stakeholders and beyond, with the ultimate goal of producing and sharing knowledge as a support for innovation and competitiveness.
During our conversation, Ana shares her insights on how to transition to a more circular economy while remaining competitive compared to less sustainable industries outside of Europe, as well as the impact of the two new National and European projects - Be@t & Waste2BioComp - in the textile sector.
