Empa St. Gallen is informing Swiss Textiles members several times a year about research collaborations in which they can participate.

Swiss Textiles has been working closely with Empa St. Gallen for many years and supports the ‘Research Radar’: through this initiative, Empa presents current calls for proposals and funding opportunities for members that may be relevant to textile companies. At the same time, the webinar offers the opportunity to form consortia in order to participate in innovation projects.
