The 2025 NIHC Global Industrial Hemp Fiber Summit is scheduled for July 15–17, 2025, at NC State University’s Wilson College of Textiles in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Organized by the National Industrial Hemp Council (NIHC) in collaboration with NC State, this summit is designed for professionals, researchers, and industry stakeholders involved in the hemp fiber sector. It aims to explore innovations in hemp fiber—from seed to final product—and discuss standardization practices.

Attendees can expect a blend of expert presentations, hands-on activities, and facility tours, including visits to NC State’s research stations and BIOPHIL Natural Fibers’ decortication and spinning operations.

The event will also feature a networking reception at Trophy Brewing on July 14, 2025.
