Environmental pollution is a major global issue affecting biodiversity, ecosystems, and human health. Multiple economic activities contribute to this pollution; the textile industry, with its enormous amount of waste, is one of the major contributors.
The Seeker of this Challenge, Iren Ambiente, has set several ambitious goals related to eco-design and eco-efficiency. One of them is to reduce the environmental impact of textile waste resulting from industrial processing. To achieve this goal, Iren Ambiente invites Solvers to join this project by submitting a short, non-confidential proposal to develop innovative technologies to recover leather waste.
This is an electronic Request-for-Partners (eRFP) Challenge; the Solver will only need to submit a written proposal to be evaluated by the Seeker with the goal of establishing a collaborative partnership.
Environmental pollution is a major global issue affecting biodiversity, ecosystems, and human health. Among the economic activities that threaten environmental sustainability, the textile industry, with its enormous amount of waste, is one of the worst offenders.
The Seeker of this Challenge, Iren Ambiente, has set several ambitious goals aligned with Italy’s National Strategy for the Circular Economy, a broad set of policies focused on eco-design and eco-efficiency. One of these goals is to reduce the environmental impact of textile waste resulting from industrial processing. To achieve this goal, Iren Ambiente invites Solvers to join this project by submitting a proposal to develop innovative technologies to recover leather waste.
The submissions should be short, non-confidential, and focusing on the efficiency of recovery, the quality of recovered leather, and minimizing consumption of resources during the process of recovery.
This is an electronic Request-for-Partners (eRFP) Challenge. The Solver will write a preliminary proposal (about 2-4 pages, including supporting non-confidential information and contact details) to be evaluated by the Seeker with a goal of establishing a collaborative partnership. Upon completion of the evaluation, the Seeker may contact selected Solvers directly to work out terms for a collaboration contract. The monetary value of the contract will vary depending on the amount of work to be delivered and the agreed upon time frame.
