As part of the DeFINE Fashion-Tech Bootcamp series, Institut Français de la Mode led the Paris Fashion-Tech Bootcamp. SmartX partners IFM and Textile ETP engaged with Fashion-Tech SMEs and start-ups to inform those working on smart textiles innovation about the funding and coaching opportunities offered by the SmartX Accelerator Programme.

17 international experts were available for two full days and a private visit and work session at Station F. It is the largest start-up hub in Europe with 1,000 businesses and a whole range of business support organisations on the same premises.

The two-day event welcomed up to 30 pre-startups, startups and SMEs to develop their fashion-tech ideas through talks, workshops and one-on-one mentoring.
