How do we equip our cities for the future? If we want cities that are both CO2 neutral and future proof, we need a new interpretation of the interplay between digitalization, the energy transition, sustainable development and urban processes. Fraunhofer’s “Urban Futures” Conference aims to bring together relevant stakeholders from Germany and abroad specialising in sustainable urban development and the smart cities. Visionaries from municipalities, politics, business and research will be presenting and discussing their solutions for the cities of the future.

We are expecting more than 400 experts to attend. Exceptional program formats such as the “Call for ideas” innovation competition, “Morgenstadt marketplace”, “Speed dating” for mayors and the „Ideas lounge” offer additional opportunities to gather information and exchange ideas.
