MEETING OF THE DOERS
CONNECTING AT
URBAN FUTURE
Activists and influencers come together to act. They represent, e.g. mobility, energy, real estate, public transport, housing, urban planning, tech, and public administration. Their joint passion for sustainability and sharing expertise – independently of their field, hierarchy, or sector – creates the unique Urban Future atmosphere of collaboration.
FOCUS ON THE HOW
INPUT THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
You’ll join the most engaging exchange of hands-on expertise in city transformations. Connect with your tribe, those who are committed to change-making processes. Most importantly, this is where everyone openly shares what’s critically relevant: hard-earned experience of what works and what doesn’t. You will leave with the tools and knowledge necessary to fast-track transformation in your city.
TRANSFORM FASTER
A FESTIVAL FOR CHANGE-MAKERS
How can you really make sustainable transformation happen? Three days packed with unique networking opportunities and 100+ sessions, workshops, seminars, and field trips await you. Get in touch with 2,000 fellow change-makers, get inspired by 250+ speakers, and meet the doers from hundreds of cities and businesses from around the world. Exposure to this much hands-on experience will supercharge your change-making impact.
