This event marks the entry into the second phase of the project, with the launch of the Fibrenamics Green digital platform, and has the participation of the Ministry of the Environment and the renowned designer David Bota.

This initiative has as its motto the valorization of waste through product design and engineering, therefore, a moment of creative thinking “Green Think Tank” is also scheduled, which will be complemented with an interactive experience.
