Event
Finals ReThink Textile Hackathon
During the two weeks of the ReThink Textile Hackathon, student teams explored options for establishing a new business to produce sustainable, biobased textiles in the Netherlands.
On 19 November, they will present their solutions in short pitches to an industry jury consisting of Harriette Bos (WUR), Christiaan Bolck (Oost NL), and Theresia Grevinga (Saxion).
In addition, co-founder of Anderlus and Fabriek Fris, Rosan van Boven, will deliver a keynote presentation.
