ullarthon

TYPE Online Event / Hackathon
YEAR2021

PROJECT INFO

From March 25 - 29 we participated in Ullarthon 2021 - an Icelandic wool-themed idea/invention marathon held online. Idea marathons are about finding innovative solutions to a specific challenge or topic, in this case: Icelandic wool. The Ullarthon ("ull" = Icelandic for wool) aims to support sustainable wool innovation and product development, and help increase the value of Icelandic wool, especially the classes/categories least profitable today.

Participants competed in four different categories ("challenges"):

1) Utilizing unprocessed wool
2) Wool mixes and blends
3) Product innovation
4) Digital solutions and traceability

Initiated by the Icelandic Textile Center in collaboration with Innovation Center Iceland. Funded by the Agricultural Productivity Fund.
