Gaël Pons
CMO, TKNP
Gael spent five years at the heart of one of France's largest textile printing companies, a small workshop that grew into an industry leader with 120 people. He watched thousands of first projects come through the door, always starting with the same questions. Co-founder of Kosmos Network, he is now building the European directory of textile customization workshops, and he writes for first-timers: the first project, step by step.
Expertise
He knows the first-project journey inside out: defining your need, briefing a workshop, comparing quotes that never look alike, choosing between screen printing, embroidery and digital printing, and avoiding the classic first-order mistakes. His ground: making the industry readable for newcomers.
