Echo pledges to help fashion, beauty and manufacturing SMEs adopt AI in a controlled and well-documented way, integrating it into existing production and administrative workflows without disrupting established processes. Building on its experience with an Italian knitwear SME, Echo delivers structured training pathways covering AI fundamentals, advanced workflow automation and applied fashion modules, combined with simple governance rules on tool inventories, human validation points, data handling and traceability.
- Target 1: Train 20 SMEs and craft businesses in the fashion and textile ecosystem through structured AI training pathways by 31 December 2027.
- Target 2: Deliver 36 hours of training per pathway, including 8 hours on AI fundamentals, 8 hours on advanced AI and workflow automation, and 20 hours on applied AI for the fashion sector.
- Target 3: Publish an open, lightweight AI governance template for SMEs, building on the knitwear case study, by 30 June 2027.
