Talk of the metaverse, blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) has taken over the textile industry as of late. This month, WTiN speaks with Eric Benoist – a technology and data specialist at Natixis, a Corporate investment banking company headquartered in Paris, France. 

We talk about synthetic biology, how AI can help in terms of sustainability and the ethics that go alongside merging science with textiles.
