Head to King’s Cross for a programme of dynamic events and exhibitions by The Mills Fabrica.

The innovation gallery and concept store Fabrica X will be shining a light on biomaterials and craftsmanship. The exhibition pays homage to ancient techniques while celebrating a new form of craft by scientists and bio-designers. Alongside this, explore zero-mile farm-to-fork produce via their vertical farming units, where fresh herbs are grown and harvested for use in the ground-floor café, Nourished Communities.

Fabrica Lab is hosting a series of biomaterial workshops, while Colorifix, one of The Mills Fabrica’s portfolio companies, is running two bacterial dye screen-printing workshops.

The Mills Fabrica is also hosting a day of enlightening talks and panels from the innovators behind trailblazing solutions for a better planet. They’re dedicated to supporting ‘techstyle’ (textile and apparel) and agrifood tech start-ups through their investment and incubation programme.

Originating in Hong Kong in 2018, The Mills Fabrica marks an exciting cross-continental chapter in the global journey to driving a more sustainable future. Join them in their goal to accelerate innovation and collaboration amongst the entrepreneurs and creatives; the activists and the public; the corporate brands and the policy makers — all doing their part to bring about positive change.

The Mills Fabrica’s investment fund has a vested interest in over 25 startups – collectively valued at over $1 billion – tackling systemic issues at the material level, within the supply chain and all the way down to the business models in need of driving better environmental, societal and governance outputs. Notable portfolio companies include garment fibre recycling pioneer Renewcell, Geltor – a biodesign company developing collagen-based vegan ingredients for the beauty industry, and Unspun, who are rewriting how jeans are made with 3D weaving technology and on-demand manufacturing.

As the second outpost of the Hong Kong-based regeneration project The Mills, the London site marks an exciting cross-continental chapter in the global journey to drive a more sustainable future.
