They will explore how to create successful juxtaposition and mix of activities contributing to liveable and dynamic cities, how to resolve environmental challenges and provide the ground for environmental, social and business/industrial innovation and innovative management. Port cities' resilience facing climate change, bio-diversity and flexible design are other important themes. We will look into both the city and the regional scale.
