NIHC Global Industrial Hemp Fiber Summit

July 15-17, 2025 | Raleigh, NC

The Wilson College of Textiles, in conjunction with the National Industrial Hemp Council, is excited to host the Global Industrial Hemp Fiber Summit.

This summit will cover innovations in industrial hemp fiber from seed to final product and standardization. It will feature a balance of hands-on activities, physical tours, expert speakers, and engaging discussions. We will also have a networking reception at a local brewery the night before the summit officially begins.

Speaker presentations and group discussions will center around the latest developments in hemp fiber technology and applications. Tours will take you through the hemp fiber journey from field, to hemp hurd processing, to decorticating and spinning and each aspect of textile processing.

We invite all professionals, authorities and researchers who want to foster advancement in the hemp fiber industry to participate in the 2025 NIHC Global Industrial Hemp Fiber Summit. See you in July!
