ADDTEX - Textile Innovation Bootcamp
July, 2024
The first week of July, AddTex project partners have organized the Textile Innovation Bootcamp , a summer school for students coming from different universities and VET organisations.
The bootcamp was hosted by Polo Universitario Città di Prato (PIN) and saw the participation of 25 students and 5 trainers.
The summer course aimed at promoting innovation and collaboration while equipping students with knowledge and skills to foster the green, digital and smart transition in the textile industry.
The methodology applied included face to face lessons, group works, company visits and testimonials and it was design-thinking inspired. Social moments were also included to foster team spirit.
Design Thinking is an interactive process that uses empathy to understand the user at the heart of the product or solution that’s being developed. It is a solutions-based approach that allows people to generate a diverse and creative set of ideas that can be prototyped, tested and improved upon quickly. For these reasons, it is frequently used by teams looking to innovate and solve complex challenges.
During the first phase of the bootcamp, students had the possibility to get acquainted with the design thinking process and learn about smart textiles, eco-design principles and digitalisation in manufacturing; moreover, they had the possibility to get in touch with real world examples (KNITRONIX and Sensing Tex) as well as to visit two very innovative companies (Comistra, Rifinizione Nuove Fibre SpA) located in the surroundings of Prato.
During the second phase of the process, the students’ started the process of the creation of their product. Participants were at first instructed on ideas development techniques and on how to transform their preliminary brainstorming into business ideas. Participants got then acquainted with ways and techniques on how to prototype ideas, tips for good brainstorming and then spent time thinking about a possible business model for their products; a workshop was organised exploiting LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.
The third phase of the bootcamp saw the students busy in developing ideas and building their prototypes. A prototype is an unfinished and physical test version of a product, a service or a process and prototypes may be used to develop, test and communicate ideas and concepts. Rapid prototypes can be built with different materials. Smart textiles elements were used by the students to create their prototypes.
Students were then instructed on how to prepare their pitch, which was delivered on the last day. The pitches began with a short introduction about the team and the product and ended with the presentation of the business model.
The different teams showed high motivation in their work and several brillant ideas came out. We can say that the bootcamp was a great success for AddTex project.

Addtex - Hackathons
May 5, 2024
From the 15th to the 17th of May 2024, AddTex Project partners have organized Hackathons for students coming from different universities (University of Boras, UPC, PIN and TUS) who are taking part in the AddTex Project consortia.
This motivating and challenging activity worked as a link to connect students from different universities with real-life industry challenges, promoting innovation in digitalisation, design and sustainability.
Hackathons were done in a collaborative effort with all project partners, bringing together professors, students, cluster managers and experts from across Europe. In two days, university students actively worked on finding the best solutions to real-life challenges proposed by various textile companies. Challenges were provided and presented by companies who are cluster members of AddTex project partners (PTC/CITEVE, CLUTEX, IVGT and AEI Tèxtils).
Proposed challenges from the companies focused on the AddTex project's main topics: sustainability, digitalization processes and smart and advanced materials.
Challenges set for students were highly challenging given the amount of time in which students had to bring the solution from the initial idea to the full presentation.
- Challenge no. 1: Creation of a 100% recyclable paper luxury bag
- Challenge no. 2: Textile accessory with safety features (HI-visibility)
- Challenge no. 3: Reducing textile waste through new recycling ideas at an awning manufacturer
- Challenge no. 4: Smart traceability
During the Hackathons, 17 experts were supporting the process online in different time settings, making sure they were available for groups of students working on the challenges.
Students were able to book a session with experts coming from diverse backgrounds, from digital marketing experts to business model developers, smart textile experts, professors, researchers, technicians, designers, and R&D engineers. Online experts provided support and brainstorming and helped navigate student's idea development in the most feasible way possible.
Companies proposing those challenges took part in the jury setting of Hackathons and were able to evaluate and comment on proposed ideas. The winning groups of students will be given the opportunity to develop their idea along with the company thanks to a virtual internship. Virtual internships will give young individuals the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the working processes of the hosting companies. The participating companies, as well, will be given the opportunity to participate in a Masterclass according to their needs.
Each group of students showed their enthusiasm, presenting innovative approaches, and developing cutting-edge solutions within the challenges of the industry.

Hacktex consortium launches the Bootcamp, an intensive training course for university students!
November 27, 2023
In a week from 13. 11 - 17. 11. 2023, the Hacktex project organised, in Borås, Sweden, an intensive training course named Hacktex Bootcamp. The course gathered students from the 4 participating universities: Gheorghe Asachi Technical University from Romania, the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya from Spain, the University of West Attica from Greece and the hosting partner, the University of Boras.
Before the intensive course, all students had access to the virtual training materials on smart textiles (MOOC) and the virtual guide on entrepreneurship focusing on smart textiles.
The program, developed previously by the Hacktex consortium, counted with several dynamic activities and challenges which mixed students from all universities. The students were divided into teams and tasked with conceptualizing smart textile products, considering their raw materials and specific technologies, as well as issues regarding product sustainability. They also identified the specifics of the main steps to develop a business model for their respective products. The ideas generated by the teams were presented and discussed.
Other activities included a visit to a textile company in Borås, participation in the Borås Textile Days event and a visit to the textile museum at the University.
The multicultural experience of interacting with students, and the academic challenges were met with creativity, based on the knowledge from the lessons in the MOOC and the virtual guide on entrepreneurship and the possibility to attract young specialists toward the field of smart textiles represent the real gain of the HACKTEX Bootcamp.
