ITMF Start-up Awards debut at ITMF Annual Conference 2022 in Davos

In 2022, the ITMF Start-up Awards were granted to seven start-ups that had applied to present their product and service innovations. Next to an innovative business idea, the criteria applied by the jury comprised aspects like criteria for business propositions, criteria related to sustainability, recyclability, or digitalisation as well as qualitative efficiency, according to a press release by the ITMF.

These seven start-ups were selected by a jury from a total of more than 40 start-ups. They could present their ideas in two so-called Start-up Sessions during the ITMF Annual Conference 2022. The objective of the ITMF Start-up Awards is to bring together young companies with innovative product and service innovations with well-established companies from the textile industry.
