Europe’s textile industry is transforming through smart technologies, bio-based materials, and cross-sector collaboration. From SmartX’s EU-wide ecosystem to BioFibreLoop’s recyclable innovations, and new Horizon Europe funding for sustainable textiles, the sector is entering a new era. At NETO Innovation, we help turn these opportunities into fundable projects.

In Ralentir ou Périr (Slow Down or Perish), Timothée Parrique dismantles the myth of infinite growth and presents economic degrowth as a path to a sustainable, fair, and resilient future. This groundbreaking work urges us to rethink production, innovation, and consumption to align technological progress with planetary limits. An inspiring manifesto for building a just and lasting economy.

Rare earths - a group of 17 elements including lanthanides, scandium, and yttrium - are critical to modern technologies but challenging to extract sustainably. While not truly rare, their concentration in exploitable deposits is low. As demand rises, innovations like Marie Perrin’s Reecover, which recycles rare earths from electronic waste, are reshaping the supply chain toward a circular, resilient economy.
