The conference has received active support from Werner Zirnzak,Deputy Managing Director of the German association IVGT and Secretary of the ETT CLUB.

"Producers from Europe and the U.S. are dominating the world market of technical textiles. The turnover of both continents amounted to 55.6 billion USD in 2005 and the average growth rate per year is up to 3.8 percent.

European and U.S. companies in high-tech sectors still have the lead when it comes to technical know-how, differentiation and innovation potential.

The IFAI Advanced Textiles 2008 offers entrepreneurs a unique opportunity to build upon the already good relationship between partners in both continents and to join forces in the technical challenges of the 21st century.

We at IVGT and ETT endorse the idea to run this meeting forum on a regular basis and to further develop it in the future," said Zirnzak.

Conference planner Dr. Isa Hofmann, CEO, IHOFMANN, is an experience textile consultant on the European forefront.

"Personal dialogue and exchange of ideas remain a key factor in the innovation process. IFAI Advanced Textiles '08 creates a cosmopolitan ambiance of intellectual vigour and enthusiasm for the opportunities offered by new technologies.

We will encourage a drive to meet the challenges of the future by initiating networking between U.S. and European entrepreneurial spirits that are ready to take the lead in textile-related innovation.

During the 1.5 day symposium, you will be immersed in different application areas of hi-tech materials and textiles from intelligent garments to automotive, health and architecture.

Special emphasis will be given to lead markets like protection and environmental issues as well as emerging new technologies."
