BioFashionTech is thrilled to have been selected as one of the leading participants in the CityLab010 initiative in February 2024, a program focused on fostering innovation and sustainable solutions for the future of urban living. Organized by the city of Rotterdam, CityLab010 provides startups with resources, mentorship, and funding to address key challenges faced by cities today, such as climate change, waste management, and circular economy models.
BioFashionTech’s participation is part of its broader mission to revolutionize the fashion industry by transforming textile waste into sustainable, biodegradable materials. With CityLab010’s support, BioFashionTech will further develop its solution to reduce textile waste through organic innovations, minimizing the fashion industry’s environmental impact while fostering eco-friendly practices in urban environments.
During its time with CityLab010, BioFashionTech collaborated with local municipalities, urban planners, and fellow innovators to explore ways to integrate its biodegradable textile solutions into the city’s waste management systems. The partnership enables BioFashionTech to accelerate its mission of driving positive environmental change while proving the economic viability of its sustainable materials. This marks a significant step for BioFashionTech in scaling its innovative solutions beyond the fashion sector and into broader urban applications.
