    The amount of applications from within the various Creative Ring hubs has been immense with 25 proposals in total.

    We are very proud that among the awardees are five proposals from Eindhoven, including three by Baltan partners: ‘Meditation Lab’ (by Hack the Body artist Danielle Roberts), ‘Closed loop smart athleisure fashion’ (by fashion technologist Marina Toeters in collaboration with Margreet de Kok and Holst Centre) and ‘Constructing Connectivity’ by Jessica Smarsch in collaboration with Raymond van Ee and Philips Research. Each team has won €50K for further research and (business) development – congratulations!

    This fall there will be another opportunity to apply pioneering wearables projects to WEAR Sustain, stay informed here.
