DWoC - Design-driven value chains in the world of cellulose

Design Driven Value Chains in the World of Cellulose (DWoC) was a multi-disciplinary research project funded by Tekes, the Finnish Funding Agency for Innovation (now Business Finland), which focused on finding new, innovative applications for cellulosic materials. The DWoC project combined design thinking and design-driven prototyping with strong competence in technology development. The goal has been to make Finland a source of value-added cellulosic products and business concepts.

The project partners were: VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Aalto University, Tampere University of Technology and University of Vaasa .
