Our nominators
We’re proud to present our GCA nominators – a diverse group helping us find the most outstanding early-stage changemakers working to transform the textile industry.
By engaging actors across universities, research institutes, government organisations, non-profits, brands, suppliers, accelerators, incubators, industry associations, GCA alumni and more, we aim to identify a broad and bold mix of innovators. This extensive global network helps us expand the GCA ecosystem and increase our impact.
Each nominator can submit 1–10 changemakers based on pre-defined criteria and the potential to accelerate industry transformation. Once nominated, changemakers are invited to apply. Their ideas are then reviewed by the H&M Foundation and a panel of experts in technology, business, fashion and sustainability – who work together to help select the final winners.

These are some of our nominators
