Workshop: Transition and pace
Experts to be announced
Multiple Rooms
Who steers the transition and how do latecomers learn from frontrunners?
By 2035, a well-functioning European learning network of cities shares knowledge, code and experiences. Frontrunners have a formal role as learning environments for latecomers. The EU funds knowledge transfer as part of the transition. No city needs to reinvent the wheel.
Questions per time step
- 2035: What is in place and working? Who holds the reins?
- 2031: What agreements, standards or structures are already operational?
- 2027: What has been started, tested or decided?
- Before end of 2026: What must begin now - and who takes the initiative
