Across the world cities are reinventing themselves.
We know that for all our diversity, cities all over the world share common challenges and are drivers for the innovation needed for a greener and more inclusive future.
In this context, the Brussels-Capital Region, Eurocities, Metropolis and the OECD Champion Mayors for Inclusive Growth Initiative are proud to present the Brussels Urban Summit.
The Brussels Urban Summit is a forum for exchange and debate on the major challenges faced by cities today and in the future. It promises to be a unique encounter and one to put in your diary.
A varied programme of events has been organised featuring a wide range of conferences and workshops for you to attend on the future challenges faced by cities around the world. There will also be opportunities for networking and discussing these challenges with other attendees.
You will soon have the option to tailor your conference programme on the official registration website.
