Full textAbstract:
The author seeks to answer the following research question: If a natural person is not a registered entrepreneur but does sell goods or services online regularly and for-profit, does that make that person a trader for the purposes of consumer law? The method applied is legal dogmatic. It is a search for the meaning of one of the key notions in consumer law, the trader. The meaning of this notion in Serbian legal literature has been taken for granted, or it has been controversially interpreted by certain consumer protection organizations, and the relevant case law does not exist, making this analysis even more needed. The author concludes that the definition of a trader from Serbian Consumer Protection Act may be interpreted encompassing a natural person who is not an entrepreneur, who sells goods or services online to consumers, depending on the circumstances of the case. The conclusion is based on the analysis of relevant CJEU case law and the case law of some EU Member States.

Full textAbstract:
This paper addresses the coordination and innovation issues needed for promoting value added at the rural and regional level. There are two sides to value added: the ability to meet consumer demand, and to identify least cost ways of supplying the demanded goods. Human and social capital plays an important role on both sides. At the municipality level the supply side issues are complex. First, because the production space has far more dimensions than for the single entrepreneur. Second, because the value of some goods and services produced depend on what other goods and services that is available. On the supply side networks are important to solve the coordination issues, while networks for identifying and understanding consumer preferences are important on the demand side. Participation in these two network types compete for the same scarce resource, the time of the inhabitants of a municipality. We address these issues in more detail. A major insight from our work is that in addition to the time conflict, innovation and new information may make it more difficult to maintain coordination networks.

Abstract. The liability of an entrepreneur towards a consumer is the specific kind of contractual responsibility. The typical feature of this regime is weakness of two principles that are basic for market economy: freedom of contracts and pacta sunt servanda principle. This liability is regulated by specific acts of law. Its object is to intensify the legal protection of the consumer. Nowadays in the Polish law, the form of legal provisions concerning pro- tection of the consumer, is influenced by European Union law, especially con- sumerist directives. The Act on specific terms and conditions of consumer sale, on 27th July 2002, has huge practical significance. The basic premise of this lia- bility is the fact of ’nonconformity of goods with the contract’. Therefore there is no need to prove any damage and other premises inseparably connected with damage liability. Moreover, it must be noticed that normally specific acts of law concerning protection of the consumer, do not entirely realize the compensatory function which is typical of general principles of contractual responsibility.

Full textAbstract:
Value-Added Tax (VAT) is a form of consumption or expenditure tax. From the perspective of the buyer, it is a tax on the purchase price, whereas, from the seller‘s point of view, it is a tax only on the "value added" to a product, material or service, at the stage of its import or manufacture or distribution or delivery .The manufacturer remits to the government the difference between these two amounts and retains the rest for themselves to adjust the taxes they had previously paid on the inputs. The "value added" to a product by a business is the sale price charged to its customer, minus the cost of materials and other taxable inputs. A VAT is like a sales tax in that ultimately only the end consumer is taxed. It differs from the sales tax in that, with the latter, the tax is collected and deposited to the government only once, at the point of purchase by the end consumer. We could call it a burden shift mechanism and it’s a very wide base mechanism to collect revenue from people. In connection with VAT system, the business establishment or organization or persons work as a collector on behalf of Government. The present study was conducted to find out the areas of impacts of New Value Added and Supplementary Tax (VAT) Act 2012 in Bangladesh, to analyze the effects of New Value Added and Supplementary Tax (VAT) Act 2012 on the business, mass people and government revenue of Bangladesh and to find out the ways of solution of impacts of New Value Added and Supplementary Tax (VAT) Act 2012. The research design of the present study was survey type. The study was conducted at Dhaka district in Bangladesh. Total 580 respondents were selected from the stake holders. Among the stakeholders, 20 Civil Society, 20 Advocates, 20 Consumers, 20 NBR Personnel, 20 Businessmen, 20 Journalists, 20 Professionals, 400 VAT Practitioners, 40 Economists were selected for the study. Data were collected from primary sources and secondary sources. The present study is based on both primary and secondary sources of data. Primary data were collected from the respondents of the study area directly using different data collection techniques. On the other hand, the study has used different relevant publications, dissertations, books, journal articles, NBR and other reports, and NBR websites etc. as sources of secondary data. Computer Program Microsoft EXCEL was used for data analysis. From the study it was found that 38% respondents strongly agreed that VAT evasion occurred in Bangladesh, 50% respondents replied that the VAT system of Bangladesh is not transparent, 60 respondents replied that the VAT and Supplementary Duty will increase Government Revenue if the VAT and Supplementary Duty Act 2012 is implemented properly, 90% respondents replied that due VAT and Supplementary Duty Act 2012 will influence the price i.e. prices of goods and materials will increase, 66% respondents replied that the VAT and Supplementary Duty Act 2012 will hamper business in VAT rate. 5. The Bangladesh National Board of Revenue should undertake effectiveness analysis to determine the effectiveness of their compliance strategies. The National Board of Revenue (NBR) should undertake a thorough communication and engagement strategy if the VAT gap results are released to the public. The NBR should take initiative to analysis of impact of New VAT Act on input rebate and tariff Value List and goods. VAT evasion system should be removed. If VAT accounting system is completely online based or software based it can be possible. Before introducing online VAT system tax payers must be familiar and trained up otherwise it may cause bad impact overall the revenue and businesses of Bangladesh.

Full textAbstract:
Openness to Creative Destruction: Sustaining Innovative Dynamism shows how life improves under the economic system often called “entrepreneurial capitalism” or “creative destruction,” but more accurately called “innovative dynamism.” The book describes how, in such a system, innovation occurs through the efforts of inventors and innovative entrepreneurs, how workers on balance benefit, and how good policies can encourage innovation. The inventors and innovative entrepreneurs are often cognitively diverse outsiders with the courage and perseverance to see and pursue serendipitous discoveries or slow hunches. Economies grow where innovative dynamism flourishes through leapfrog competition, as in the United States from roughly 1830 to 1930. Consumers vote with their feet for innovative new goods and for process innovations that reduce prices, benefiting ordinary citizens more than the privileged elites. Some labor-market fears are unjustified, since more and better new jobs are created than are destroyed; other fears can be mitigated by better policies. Since breakthrough inventions are costly and difficult, patents can be fair rewards for invention and can provide funding to enable future inventions. At the key early stage of most breakthrough innovations, when innovative ideas are hardest to communicate and most widely doubted, the innovations are largely self-funded. The steady growth in regulations, often defended on the basis of the precautionary principle, increases the costs of innovation for the entrepreneur. Secular (long-term) stagnation is due to bad policies, not to having picked the low-hanging fruit, as illustrated by innovative medical entrepreneurs who are constrained from bringing us quicker and better cures for cancer.

The trade in counterfeit goods is growing. Recent EU studies on Fast Moving Consumer Goods indicate that 6.5% of all sports(wear) goods, 7.8% of cosmetics and 12.7% of luggage/handbags sold in the EU are in some way counterfeit. The WTO has an oft-repeated estimate of 7% of all global commerce as counterfeit. The World Economic Forum goes further, suggesting that counterfeiting and piracy cost the global economy an estimated $1.77 trillion in 2015, which is nearly 10% of the global trade in merchandise. Much work and popular scrutiny has examined flows of counterfeit goods. However, there remains a general lack of information on the financing of the counterfeit trade. Drawing upon cross-disciplinary research, the book offers a unique account into the financing of the trade in counterfeit goods. Focusing on tangible goods, it addresses the ways in which capital is secured to allow counterfeiting businesses to be initiated and sustained, how entrepreneurs and customers settle payments, the costs of conducting business in the counterfeiting trade, and how profits from the business are spent and invested. The book covers the UK context, whilst also considering the distinctly transnational nature of the trade.

Full textAbstract:
During the twentieth century ‘affluence’ (both at the level of the individual household and society as a whole) became intimately linked with access to a range of prestige consumer durables. This book charts the inter-war origins of a process that would eventually transform these features of modern life from being ‘luxuries’ to ‘necessities’ for most British families. It examines how producers and retailers succeeded in creating mass (though not universal) markets for new suites of furniture, radios, modern housing, and some electrical and gas appliances, while also exploring why some other goods, such as refrigerators, telephones, and automobiles, failed to reach the mass market in Britain before the 1950s. Creating mass markets presented a formidable challenge for manufacturers and retailers. Consumer durables required large markets. Most involved significant research and development costs. Some, such as the telephone, radio, and car, were dependent on complementary investments in infrastructure. All required intensive marketing—usually including expensive advertising in national newspapers and magazines—while some also needed mass production methods (and output volumes) to make them affordable to a mass market. This study charts the pioneering efforts of entrepreneurs (many of whom are now largely forgotten) to provide consumer durables at prices affordable to a mass market and to persuade a sometimes reluctant public to embrace the new products and the consumer credit that their purchase required. The author shows that, contrary to much received wisdom, there was a ‘consumer durables revolution’ in inter-war Britain—at least for certain highly prioritized goods.

Music does not make itself. It is made by people: professionals and amateurs, singers and instrumentalists, composers and publishers, performers and audiences, entrepreneurs and consumers. In turn, making music shapes those who make it—spiritually, emotionally, physically, mentally, socially, politically, economically—for good or ill, harming and healing. This volume considers the social practice of music from a Christian point of view. Using a variety of methodological perspectives, the essays explore the ethical and doctrinal implications of music-making. The reflections are grouped according to the traditional threefold ministry of Christ: prophet, priest, and shepherd: the prophetic role of music, as a means of articulating protest against injustice, offering consolation, and embodying a harmonious order; the pastoral role of music: creating and sustaining community, building peace, fostering harmony with the whole of creation; and the priestly role of music: in service of reconciliation and restoration, for individuals and communities, offering prayers of praise and intercession to God. Using music in priestly, prophetic, and pastoral ways, Christians pray for and rehearse the coming of God’s kingdom—whether in formal worship, social protest, concert performance, interfaith sharing, or peacebuilding. Whereas temperance was of prime importance in relation to the ethics of music from antiquity to the early modern period, justice has become central to contemporary debates. This book seeks to contribute to those debates by means of Christian theological reflection on a wide range of musics: including monastic chant, death metal, protest songs, psalms and worship music, punk rock, musical drama, interfaith choral singing, Sting, and Daft Punk.

Full textAbstract:
A comprehensive study of the power of differentiation as a key component of any business model, this book includes a step-by-step process to help leaders discover, achieve, express, and sustain their own authentic position. For the first time in recent history, trust is as important to corporate reputation as quality of products and services, according to the 2010 Edelman Trust Barometer. Still, nearly 70 percent of people say that organizations will revert to "business as usual" once the economy recovers. Moreover, U.S. job satisfaction is at a 22-year-low, according to a 2010 Conference Board report, and by most every measure, the consumer outlook is bleak. The good news? Organizational authenticity is attainable, declares Morin in Better Make it Real. However, it isn't the goal, she says, but the result of providing, consistently and continuously, an authentic "total experience" to your stakeholders—workers, customers, vendors, and other business partners. In other words, Morin affirms, authenticity isn't a destination—it's an ongoing journey that will serve to differentiate any organization in its marketplace, which too often is littered with fakes. Morin's recommended roadmap is Kahler Slater's Total Experience Design—a specific, step-by-step process for designing stakeholder experiences that are "authentic, intentional, and wholly integrated." In Better Make It Real, Morin offers a comprehensive guide to implementing Total Experience Design inside organizations of all types and sizes. She also shares behind-the-scenes stories from Kahler Slater projects and clients, including Google, Robert Redford's Sundance Cinemas, Monster.com, and numerous entrepreneurial enterprises. Bottom line: Organizational authenticity is sorely lacking—and urgently needed. On the heels of the Great Recession, Morin rolls out a roadmap to "real"—helping executives and entrepreneurs find their way forward.

The paper deals with the limitation of the entrepreneur’s autonomy of will and freedom of expression in relation to the consumer by the principle of non-discrimination. The subject of the examination is the strict Section 6 of the Consumer Protection Act, which only prohibits the entrepreneur from discriminating against consumers in the sale of goods or services, without defining specific discriminatory grounds. The case-law refers in this respect to the regulation contained in Section 10 of the Anti-Discrimination Act. The paper focuses on the case law of the Czech courts that has dealt with discriminatory conduct in B2C relations and this is critically assessed.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractAfter World War I, an architectural and urban movement for protecting heritage emerged. An important turning point for urban conservation was when the focus shifted from the process itself towards questioning why to conserve (what are the values being safeguarded) and for whom? Adaptive Reuse of Cultural Heritage became a two faceted tool which tackles contemporary needs with high quality reuse projects and provides evidence of the multilayered positive impacts. Although there is no commonly agreed upon definition of cultural entrepreneurship, the authors define it as a set of activities aimed at harnessing a cultural business opportunity. The novelty stands in being innovative in transforming cultural values into economic values. The process of creating new adaptive reuse of heritage buildings is about the business of transforming abandoned, underused or not in use cultural heritage into common goods which reflect needs and aspirations of the contemporary local community with respect to environment and social practices and interactions. It is timely for cultural entrepreneurs to embrace circular and innovative organizational forms of business and finance for managing their cultural activities. Cultural entrepreneurship is auspicious because it endows innovative concepts on quantity, quality and manipulation of resources in tandem with novel ways of empowering consumers, prosumers and the community at large in governing the common goods. This paper illustrates the process of developing a circular business model for adaptive reuse of cultural heritage in line with the guidelines of the Historic Urban Landscape approach. It also delineates how the circular business model workshops were conducted throughout H2020 project CLIC and what were the main results.

Abstract To summarize the ideas presented in the last chapter, consider a model economy with a few industrial sectors, the number of which we set to two for illustrative purposes. Call them sector 1 and sector 2. Each sector produces one good, so that the product market is made of two goods, good 1 and good 2. Assume that there are many entrepreneurs in both sectors; we can, however, normalize their number to unity in both sectors in order to make the exposition simple. At this level of generality we may think that each firm is owned by one individual, who is both the entrepreneur and the consumer of the model economy.

This chapter introduces the term neoliberal spirituality, which serves as a category to represent a crucial node in global neoliberal capitalism. Spiritual industries, corporations, entrepreneurs, and consumers relate spiritual practices to ethical values through marketing and consumer activities. The result, neoliberal spirituality, represents a neoliberal mode of governance. Gestural subversion, subverting dominant power structures through gestures, however, is a key area of their valuation. The subversive expressions appliqued across yogaware and the industry’s “do good” discourses, for example, signal to the consumer that the products are characterized by values antagonistic to or at least in tension with the forces and relations of capitalist production.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to discuss the key regulations applicable to the sale of goods and services to consumers on online trading platforms, in the light of changes in Polish law resulting from the implementation of Directive 2019/2161 (the Omnibus Directive), Directive 2019/770 (the Digital Content Directive) and Directive 2019/771 (the Sale of Goods Directive). The new regulations are first of all aimed at eliminating the risk factors to which the consumer is exposed as a buyer on the online marketplace, in particular by being misled about the contracting party or by manipulation of offers or prices. Once the changes come into force, entrepreneurs will be obliged, inter alia, to inform the consumer: on the main parameters determining the ranking of products on the platform, about the status of the seller, where applicable – how the obligations related to the contract are shared between the seller and the provider of the online marketplace, where applicable – about personalised pricing based on automated decision-making, and about the actual price reduction in the case of goods on special offer. The new regulations, including the provisions of Regulation 2019/1150 (P2B – platform to business), will create a coherent system to protect the transparency and fairness of the operation of online trading platforms.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on the appropriating and commodifying practices of spirituality industries and asks how corporations, entrepreneurs, and consumers relate spiritual practices to ethical values through marketing and consumer activities. The author analyzes popular spiritual discourses, demonstrating how the powerful and subversive expressions appliqued across yogaware and the industry’s “do good” discourses are tied to a commitment to particular “yogic” or “spiritual” values. Yet, for all of the self-actualization it offers through PEACE LOVE YOGA the industry also plays a capitalist game that thrives on nostalgia about lost cultural norms, as well as neoliberal narratives about the capitalist market, self-care, and personal improvement.

The rhetoric of capitalism highlights the benefits of deregulation and free trade, but in practice major markets have always been quite highly regulated. Buyers and sellers cannot operate without trust, and trust is underpinned by formal market rules enforced by reputable institutions. Markets allow buyers to compare the prices and qualities of competing products. These products are supplied by entrepreneurs, who ‘intermediate’ between the workers they employ and the customers they serve. They allow workers to produce goods they do not consume, and customers to consume goods that they do not produce. Workers can specialise according to their aptitudes and training, and consumers can purchase according to their income and tastes. The modern market economy developed in thirteenth century European towns and was stimulated by local and national regulation. Regulation became increasingly standardised as international trade expanded from the sixteenth century onwards. Today economies use a mixture of real and virtual markets; the market structure is the same, but communication is digital rather than face to face, and the product is not collected from a shop but delivered to the door.

Full textAbstract:
Bioentrepreneurship is a biological entity related to sciences that creates, builds, and acquires profit to establish a business. At present, the biggest challenges for bioentrepreneurs is to stand out from their competitors. There are various function that bioentrepreneurs apply to their businesses to be unique, such as marketing. Marketing includes product development, distribution methods, sales, advertising, etc. Despite of all these efforts, entrepreneurs are still facing a problem to sell products as the consumer preference and need is changing day by day. Therefore, to succeed in business today, it is very important to develop new strategies to change the existing products in order to provide good service to the consumers and retain the business. The process taken by the company to develop the existing market is known as market development. This chapter will focus on market development and selling the product according to consumer needs.

Abstract Leadership and innovation are key to curtailing carbon emissions and stabilizing climate change. Neither automakers, oil companies, nor consumers are likely to lead the way, at least on their own, so it falls to governments and entrepreneurs to spur action in the right direction. For a model of how this might happen, we need look no further than California. California is at the forefront of innovation and is focusing increasingly on the fight against global warming. California’s reach extends far beyond its borders. It spurred the last two major global industrial revolutions (in information technology and biotechnology), has more top-rank universities than any other region, and is home to the Hollywood-based entertainment industry that projects American culture to the rest of the world. California exports goods, but perhaps more influential is its export of car-based cities and lifestyles. It has more people, cars, energy use, and carbon emissions than any other state in the Union, and most other nations. When it comes to cars and oil, California has been an innovator and entrepreneur—though not always for the best. A positive view is that all the pieces are in place for California to create a low-carbon energy and transportation system and to lead other states and nations in doing the same. It has visionary political leaders, experienced government agencies, accomplished research institutions, technically sophisticated entrepreneurs, a large venture capital community, and environmentally savvy consumers and voters.

Full textAbstract:
One of the main concerns of PYMES in our country is the construction of Marketing Strategies that allows them to achieve the objectives of the company and a clear differentiation from the competition. Today's consumer is an informed, conscious person who also seeks brands and/or companies to offer solution proposals with a high content of value. According to the Association of Entrepreneurs of Mexico, through the x-ray of Entrepreneurship in Mexico, PYMES fail for reasons such as lack of knowledge of the market 34%, poor administration 32% and problems with partners 25%. This study focuses on this objective, which is why it contributes academically to the understanding of the problem and, on the other hand, a practical contribution that seeks to present data that provides timely information for the company with the intention that they can build consistent strategies for the consumer. This is a descriptive study with which 100 consumers were surveyed. The results indicate that in general there is a lack of knowledge in relation to the Marketing Strategies of PYMES, but there is a good attitude to learn about this topic, since for consumers, when talking about a marketing strategy, they relate it only to issues that have to be see with special prices or discounts. No significant differences were found between male and female consumers

Full textAbstract:
The COVID-19 outbreak has heavily influenced the way many businesses operate across all sectors linked to both changes in the consumer behavior, social-distancing restrictions and also the availability of resources and services (inc. public services) for businesses. These restrictions have influenced also the work of enterprises in the sector of bioeconomy � producers, processors and distributors of manufactured goods like food, clothing or home goods and other bio-based sectors both in the stages of primary production and processing and distribution. This study aims to assess the digitalisation process of the enterprises in the bioeconomy sector, the enterprise`s motivation for digitalisation and the impact of COVID-19 to the digitalisation of enterprises. It analyses the results of a survey carried out in Latvia in 2 phases � in 2020 and 2021 of entrepreneurs and employees of the enterprises working in the sector of bioeconomy, which allows to identify the digitalisation tools used by these enterprises and their motivation in moving towards the digital transformation.

Full textAbstract:
The research focuses on determining the share of electricity that a consumer receives from low-carbon sources, such as renewable energy sources and nuclear power. Confirmation of the origin of the consumed electricity helps to improve the company's image in the eyes of customers, partners and investors and to label products accordingly. Also, in the context of the introduction of the EU's carbon adjustment mechanism for imports (CBAM), determining the origin of electricity is becoming relevant for companies in such industries as metallurgy, construction, energy and agriculture. CBAM will create additional barriers to trade by increasing costs due to carbon emissions, making it more difficult for Ukrainian goods to export to the EU. The use of clean energy can reduce the cost of carbon certificates under the CBAM. Companies sourcing energy from lowcarbon sources will have fewer CO2 emissions, which will reduce their import costs to the EU. For companies and entrepreneurs engaged in foreign trade, this can be an important strategy for adapting to new requirements and remaining competitive. In order to confirm the origin of electricity from LCES, the article investigates the possibility of applying a method for calculating individual components of electricity flows in the branches of the power grid circuit caused by generation and consumption in the nodes. The method is based on the methods and algorithms for calculating steady-state modes of power grids. As a result, a matrix of power distribution coefficients is formed, which allows determining the component of power flows in the branches of the circuit caused by the generation of LCES. As an example, a calculation was performed for an IEEE circuit of 14 nodes, including various energy sources, using the Power Factory software package. The analysis of the calculation results is confirmed by the results of computer modelling.

Full textAbstract:
The economic behaviour, needs and preferences of people vary in the individual phases of their lives. The silver economy market is made up of consumers, employees or employers aged 50+. The share of this population is an important target group for entrepreneurs, brings a wide range of new products and services to businesses and has a significant role for the national economy as there is a change in the understanding of the ageing process from a threat towards economic opportunities. Although the ageing workforce and seniors in the Slovak Republic do not represent a strong demand for market goods yet, their economic potential may not be negligible. The rapid ageing of the Slovak population represents, among other things, an economic potential that can be exploited in favour of innovation and improvement. Despite not a high level of pensions, seniors have considerable purchasing power, which will generate an increasing demand for specific goods and services, which is an opportunity for the labour market. In this paper we try to describe selected areas in which the silver economy and the ageing population itself should be viewed as a challenge to new business opportunities. In particular, these include health service and health care, spa care, the pharmaceutical industry, tourism, the financial sector and, last but not least, construction industry. The silver economy will change the rules of market forces in existing sectors and create a wholly new industry at the intersection of demographic and technological changes with a high export potential.

"Increasing Price Competitiveness through Efficient Use of Materials with Upcycle and Patchwork Techniques in the Clothing Production Process." In Unima International Conference on Science and Technology 2022. Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.4028/p-z2hgew.
Full textAbstract:
Consumers in choosing clothing products are increasingly considering many things, including models that are up to date with a touch of new technology, good quality but at competitive prices on equivalent products. This condition needs to be observed by a fashion entrepreneur, especially with regard to the issue of how to produce clothing at competitive prices (relatively cheaper for equivalent quality) without compromising on quality and with innovative models. Waste from the fashion production process, especially patchwork, can be utilized so that it can become a new product (and at the same time present innovation) and can bring profits. In this way, the use of raw materials for the main product (clothing) is more efficient, and this will also have an effect on reducing production costs. This analytical presentation is emphasized on the problem of how to make the price of fashion products more competitive without abandoning quality requirements and with up to date models. In addition, it also presents an illustration of how to make fashion products using efficient raw materials, namely by utilizing waste clothing products for product innovation (upcycle). These products are in the form of accessories or complementary clothing and household accessories which are done using patchwork techniques.

Full textAbstract:
In the fashion and textile industry, the manufacturing phase is when the design patterns are turned into a final product, using different materials, equipment, labour force, energy, water, etc. This industry makes lovely items, uses a significant amount of raw materials, water and energy, and produces waste and CO2 emissions. Under these circumstances, the companies and the consumers have to make some changes: to reduce the number of products that are purchased, used, and disposed of and to reintegrate the used products or waste in different steps of manufacturing processes to obtain new materials and other items (the linear business model becomes a circular model). The European Commission supports initiatives that aim to find sustainable resources, innovate the production flow, and preserve natural resources. The "Innovative design practices for achieving a new textile circular sector, Acronym Design4Circle" project, funded by the European Commission through the Erasmus+ program KA2 - Cooperation for Innovation and the Exchange of Good Practices, KA202 - Strategic Partnerships for vocational education and training, aims at covering the skill gaps in eco-innovation of European designers of textile and fashion products in order to enable them to adapt to the circular model. This paper presents the project's main objective: creating an innovative learning curriculum in line with the textile and fashion industry designers' needs incorporated into an e-learning platform. The platform content is well-suited for VET trainers, students, managers, technicians, and entrepreneurs who wish to acquire the competencies and skills necessary to implement new Eco-design practices and circular economy principles in the fashion and textile industry.
