Thriving Urbanity: How to create the social and physical infrastructure to achieve and sustain it
In an era of continuous change, key ingredients for future proofing our cites include:
• Transition to a lower carbon lifestyle and new social behaviours
• Urban regeneration, placemaking and densification
• Social integration and inclusivity
• Enhancing connectivity and mobility
Join us to hear from Edward Glaeser, author of ‘Triumph of the city’ and Professor Economics at Harvard University. Other prominent national and international speakers, like Maarten Hajer, Professor of Urban Futures at the University of Utrecht will add to the debate.
We are proud to announce that, for the second time, we will grant the Uli Netherlands Leadership Award for Outstanding Urban (Re)Development at the Uli Award Dinner, to which all conference attendees are invited. We welcome you and your colleagues to the perfect forum for attendees to gain new insights into the latest urban development trends, as well as make new connections and strengthen existing relationships.
