Industry strategist and founder of Colorkarma, Shoshana Burgett, approached Texprocess during the pandemic to identify new ways to educate and engage audiences at the show. Burgett, Texprocess and Xochil Herrera Scheer, founder of the Chicago Pattern Maker, partnered together to develop The Studio series to highlight a range of technology trends occurring in the apparel market, the company said in a media statement.

The Studio education series at Texprocess Americas is being conducted each day on the show floor and includes conversations with industry leaders from Tukatech, Henderson Sewing Machine, Twine Solutions, Alvanon, Shima Seiki, Bear Fiber, ClothingTech, Exenta from Aptean, and more.

“We are excited to kick off ‘The Studio’ at Texprocess America. The textile industry is ripe and ready for digital processes and advanced technology. The pandemic highlighted that other manufacturing industry tools apply to apparel. This three-day educational series will cover everything from automation, digitalisation, 3D virtualisation, digital twins, and micro-factories,” Burgett said in a statement.
