This week, we are launching the SmartInno project to address the educational gaps in the field of smart textiles! 💡 As smart textiles rapidly transform industries from healthcare to sports, there is a growing need to adapt educational curriculums at both vocational and university levels. Currently, students lack the necessary training to meet the demands of this evolving field. Led by Textile ETP, TITERA, and SmartTex-Netzwerk, this Erasmus+-funded project’s objectives are to identify the specific skills needed in smart textiles, bridge the knowledge gaps in educational programs, and create innovative, practical learning materials for students and teachers alike.
