From 22-29 September, Innovalley’s bags YouShine were exposed at the 16th edition of the ITMA, the most important textile machinery exhibition in the world.
For the first time, Fira Barcelona’s Gran Via trade fair site hosted this event which is held in a different city every four years. Previous editions have taken place in cities such as Milan, Hanover, Basel, Paris, Birmingham and Munich. This edition gathered 120,000 visitors, 1,350 exhibitors and had 240,000 m2 of exhibition space.
We want to thank ITMA and our partner, CETEMMSA, for giving us the the opportunity to expose our product and participate in the most important textile exhibition in the world. Innovalley’s goal is to revolutionize the textile world by partnering and co-developing innovative products with clothing and footwear brands.

After a month of intense work, the first edition of Imagine Creativity Center has come to an end. The program’s highlight was the final event that took place last Wednesday at Public Works, San Francisco. The participants, the dreamers, presented their ideas around 4 projects: the future of mobility, smart apparel 2.0, the future of shopping experience and the future of advertising.
Innovalley, as sponsor of Imagine, led the project about smart apparel 2.0.
Janire, Óscar and Aitor (the Smart Apparel team) surprised us with an innovative solution to improve the sleeping experience. Their project, called Smart Sleeping, consists of a set of connected blanket, pillow and pajamas that interact with a Smart phone app. The system includes revolutionary features like biometric tracking, multimedia resources, communication capacities… Moreover, users can set up their profile from the app, store it on the cloud and take their sleeping experience anywhere.
Thanks guys for such a great job! Keep on dreaming!
