Baanbrekende Businessmodellen | BNRHoe ByBorre de textielindustrie disruptByBorre bouwde een businessmodel met een platform voor on demand breimachines.

Het productieproces is echter zwaar vervuilend en zorgt voor maar liefst 10 procent van de mondiale CO2-uitstoot. ByBorre wil daar iets aan doen, met een on demand platform dat verspilling tegengaat. De tool werkt als een soort Photoshop voor textiel, die designers in staat stelt om zelf de juiste materialen te kiezen. Het bedrijf be...
