Now we're challenging the industry.

The textile and fashion industry has a very large climate impact associated with a linear, non-digitized value chain. To change this, innovation and fresh thinking are required. That is why leading Swedish incubators have come together around NEST – New Entrepreneurship for a Sustainable Textile industry. By combining our different areas of expertise in tech and textiles, we can together identify and develop growth companies that, with new solutions, can contribute to the transformation the industry needs to undergo.

You are needed to make it possible!

As incubators, we have extensive experience in developing promising growth companies from idea to market entry. Succeeding in the necessary transformation of the textile industry requires cross-industry solutions where technology meets textiles. We are convinced that, by harnessing our combined strength under a united flag, we can achieve greater impact together than individually. This will benefit everyone involved. Now we need entrepreneurs with sustainable and innovative ideas!

The business community is needed.

NEST is made possible with support from Vinnova in collaboration with the industry association TEKO and the Swedish School of Textiles in Borås. To effect change, we engage the business community in NEST. Our goal is to give innovative companies the opportunity to solve real problems and create profitable businesses. Do you have a problem you want to solve? Do you represent the business community and want to be part of the change? Then we want to hear from you.
