EVENTS DIARY

The 24 designers selected by Texprint's industry panels are promoted at leading yarn and textile exhibitions.  Texprint London takes place in July and is Texprint’s preview presentation, providing the first opportunity for our sponsors, plus press and industry professionals to see highlights of the designers' work. This is followed in September by the main Texprint presentation at Indigo/Première Vision, Paris, Europe's leading textile design specialty show, where the designers exhibit their full portfolios, meet international buyers and make contacts.  The Texprint Awards Presentation takes place at Indigo and is attended by industry celebrities and press, providing a great opportunity to promote the talent of British textile designers to an international audience. 

In 2011, the designers were fortunate in also exhibiting at Spinexpo, Shanghai, and at Interstoff Asia Essential, Hong Kong, giving them the opportunity to make contacts in the very important Asia market.
