Joint final Lighthouse cities session during the European Week of Cities and Regions

The smart city projects will host the session ‘From dream to reality: sharing experiences from leading European Smart Cities’ showing the impacts achieved in terms of energy efficiency, smart mobility, ICT, governance and social acceptance. This will provide policy makers and experts with valuable insights for replication in other European cities and regions.

The session on October 8 will feature practitioners from cities such as Manchester, Eindhoven, Stavanger, Cologne, Valladolid, Seraing, Barcelona, Nottingham and Stockholm as well as political representatives from selected cities to discuss the European impact on local implementation.

The cities are all part of the Lighthouse Programme, which currently consists of 40 European Lighthouse cities, leading the way to a smarter, more sustainable Europe by deploying and testing new solutions in energy, transport and digital technology that are replicated in 50 Fellow cities.

The event will take place at the Committee of the Regions, room VM3, Rue Van Maerlant 2 in Brussels from 14.30 – 17.00. You can read more and register for the event at the European Week of Regions and Cities Website.
