“The Living Textile Heritage of the Alps” event marks a significant milestone: it celebrates AlpTextyles’ first year of dedicated research work and findings about the Alpine textile market and value chains.

The event will be an immersive experience with networking opportunities and creative thinking. Participants will have the chance to engage with leading experts on a variety of topics, exploring the mappings of once missing steps of the value chains and the growing revalorization of local resources at the cultural, industrial, and policy making levels.

The agenda will feature a dynamic lineup of talks, discussions, and an exhibition showcasing the highlights and achievements of AlpTextyles’ first year of research.

The high-profile speakers include representatives from EU institutions (DG Department of Growth of the European Commission, EURATEX – European Textile and Apparel Confederation), international organizations (WIPO – World Intellectual Property Organization, IWTO — International Wool Textile Organization), and cultural associations (European Fashion Heritage Association, Musée des Tissus et des Arts Décoratifs).
