Social and Technological Innovation Factory for Low-Carbon and Circular Industrial Value Chains
About us
SoTecIn Factory is a Horizon Europe project aimed at improving resilience and sustainability of the European industry by supporting a community of mission-oriented social innovators and connecting them to technology providers and industrial companies. The project supports systemic transformation towards restructuring 7 key industrial value chains (Electronics and ICT; Batteries and Vehicles; Packaging; Plastics; Textiles; Construction and Buildings; Food Water and Nutrients) to be low-carbon and circular, by implementing higher value circular economy strategies, i.e. reuse, repair, refurbish and remanufacture. Specifically, the SoTecIn Factory will support 40 mission-oriented social entrepreneurs with services regarding governance (through the creation of stewardship councils for each innovation), business model, capacity-building, fund-raising and exploitation, and 30 mission-oriented pre-market demonstration projects. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the Grant Agreement 101058385.
