As the first major textile event since COVID-19 put the brakes on tradeshows in early 2020, Techtextil North America returns to Raleigh, North Carolina, August 23-25, 2021, to reunite an industry hungry for in-person business interactions.
The show’s theme, “Accelerating Technology,” will highlight the textile industry’s high level of innovation and contribution to the global supply chain through advanced technology.
North Carolina State University’s Wilson College of Textiles – internationally renowned as a leader in the field of textile education and innovation – will serve as the Official Academic Partner, with several members of the college’s faculty seated on the show’s Advisory Council.
Selected for their industry knowledge and expertise, the Advisory Council acts as a support to the management team in the planning and execution of the Techtextil North America Symposium and other educational content and show features, which, will focus on advanced technology in textile design, development and end-to-end manufacturing.
The event will include the first-ever Texprocess Americas pavilion, supported by the Sewn Products Equipment & Suppliers of America (SPESA). It will feature machinery, equipment and technology designed to foster new business opportunities and strategic partnerships between exhibitors and attendees. Industry leaders will be given the chance to meet, learn and see equipment functionality firsthand.
In addition to the pavilion, SPESA will co-locate its Advancements in Manufacturing Technologies Conference with Techtextil North America in 2021. The conference features presentations and panel discussions from SPESA members about the products they make as well as the challenges they face as they aim to improve efficiency, speed and accuracy in sewn products manufacturing.
Conference registration includes access to the show floor, and plenty of time to network with speakers, exhibitors, and attendees. Visit www.techtextilna.com to receive the latest updates and announcements.
