24-01-2025
On Thursday, December 5, 2024, the European Metropolis of Lille, ADEME and the Lille-Courtrai-Tournai Eurometropolis honoured six winning projects in the third edition of the European Circular Fashion Trophies.
Finalist projects were evaluated on their ability to:
- Reduce environmental impacts over the entire cycle, and even stimulate positive impacts
- Extending the lifespan of products and services for greater sustainability
- Innovate with new business models that reflect a strong sense of social and societal responsibility
- Influence consumption patterns by encouraging behavioural change, awareness-raising, consumer involvement and even the practice of sobriety.
Huge congratulations to our partner the United Repair Centre, named as one of the six innovative projects. The United Repair Centre gained a Small Enterprise Trophy Booster, gaining €5,000 financial prize awarded by BNP Paris Bas and Kiabi, with the LITA.co offer to raise €100,000 in funds.
CEO’s Thami Schweichler and Paul Kerssens are thrilled, as are we at Fashion-Enter Ltd, which houses the London branch of the United Repair Centre – repair certainly is the new cool!
