MIT researchers are changing the way we think about fabrics in the world today.
The Fabric Innovation Hub is a network of MIT faculty, students and thought leaders from industry, and the vehicle for promoting the pipeline of new ideas and technologies coming out of MIT laboratories that can revolutionize the textile industry.
We are convening the best minds at MIT and in industry, to develop technologies that will reshape the world of functional fibers, fabrics and related applications, across the textile supply chain.
OUR MISSION
The mission of the MIT Fabric Innovation Hub is to foster a community of experts in fibers and fabrics at MIT and to promote research, technology, education and innovation in support of the future of the textile industry.
