Objectives:

In Transit aims to promote the resilience of SMEs in the textile, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and construction sectors by making them greener and more digital with a social and business model. This is coupled with a mixed support mechanism that includes individual assessment support, financial support and advice to ensure consolidation and sustainability. The project aims to support the main objectives of the European Green Deal and the EU SME Strategy.

The project will launch several calls for grants for SMEs to promote their acceleration:

• “Innovate” calls: focused on a green transition acceleration support by intermediating individual and collective coaching and services. The objective is to provide services to 100 companies with this instrument.
• “Develop” calls: focused on comprehensive support including financial support of up to €49k non-refundable and coaching support. The objective is to finance 60 companies with a total of €3M in cascade funding.

In addition, the In Transit project will organise several events to facilitate proposal generation and cross-sector collaboration, including the launch of travel vouchers for participation.

The role of Tèxtils.CAT is to facilitate the support of communication and dissemination activities and maximise promotional opportunities throughout the duration of the In Transit project.

Highlighted activities:

Reception of a delegation of companies and organizations from across Europe to present success stories in green transition and smart textiles, with visits to the facilities of member companies ANTEX and Sensing Tex.
