KnitWarm wins the top award in prestigious Asia Pacific ICT Alliance Awards 2020-21

KnitWarm has won the top honour in the ‘Inclusion – Health & Wellbeing’ category at the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance (APICTA) Awards 2020-21.

KnitWarm is the first-of-its-kind heat conductive smart textile. It warms up in 30 seconds when plugged into the power bank and gives a gentle sensation like the skin under the sunshine. This patented invention removes the bulkiness, discomfort, and unaesthetic appearance from the existing mechanisms and unlocks extensive applications addressing an unsatisfied demand in the market to provide warm yet stylish gadgets.

Asia Pacific Information and Communications Technology Alliance (APICTA) Awards is a prominent annual Asia Pacific Information and Communications Technology (ICT) event (since 2001). It provides platform for innovators and entrepreneurs in the ICT sectors to benchmark their products with each other.
