Urban Alchemy: Turning Empty Spaces into Vibrant Places (FISHBOWL)
Thursday September 26, 2024 11:45 - 13:00 CEST
Keilepand Mezzanine (Main Hall)
This session delves into the transformative potential of urban challenges, focusing on how vacant office buildings and department stores can be reimagined as vibrant, sustainable spaces. By examining five successful reuse projects from Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Germany, participants will gain insights into practical strategies and tools for revitalizing commercial areas. The session features a diverse panel of experts, including representatives from municipalities, investors, concept developers, and urban social designers, who will share their experiences and perspectives on creating lively communities and smart business cases.

Participants will benefit from engaging in an interactive "fishbowl" discussion, allowing them to contribute to and expand the "method box" of solutions for urban transformation. By learning from real-world case studies in cities such as Hanau, Lübeck, Berlin, and Amsterdam, attendees will acquire valuable knowledge to enhance their strategies for future urban development projects.

- Discover innovative approaches to transforming urban spaces into sustainable hubs.
- Engage with a diverse group of experts and peers in a dynamic discussion format.
- Gain practical insights from successful case studies to apply to your own projects.
