Dr. RA Lal, Chairman NISTI

“As we stand on the brink of a transformative shift in the textile industry, sustainability has emerged as the defining challenge and opportunity for the future. The NISTI-IIT Delhi Conference on Sustainability in Textiles provides an exceptional platform for industry leaders, innovators, and researchers to come together and discuss how we can drive meaningful change. Our collective efforts in embracing circularity, eco-friendly materials, responsible sourcing, and technological innovations will shape the future of the textile sector. This conference is not just a discussion; it is a call to action for every stakeholder—designers, manufacturers, policymakers, and consumers—to come together and collaborate towards a more sustainable, resilient, and environmentally responsible textile industry. Let us unite to create a circular textile ecosystem that benefits both the environment and society at large.”
