We want to thank all our attendees who joined us for the 2024 ULI Netherlands Annual Conference - we were thrilled to facilitate thoughtful discussions and innovative explorations of the resilient future of the European and Global built environment. Our personal key takeaways from the theme of 'Future Proof Cities' include: 🔵 It is impossible to shape cities by merely investing in tangible assets (‘stones’) without improving the position of human beings. Investing in people, particularly in education, is essential — from the speech of Ahmed Aboutaleb, Mayor of #Rotterdam. 🔵 Understanding who we are building for is essential – 'While context, culture, and climate may vary, human behaviour is universal' - from the presentation by Morten Kjer Jeppesen 🔵 Enhancing existing spaces should be a focus of already dense European cities such as #Paris – presented by Marion Waller. 🔵 Disruptive technologies, diverse energy sources, and a sustainable ecosystem in our urban areas can be part of a collective international approach to changing the economic function of our cities. – from the presentation by Brigit van Dijk - van de Reijt Speakers Marion Waller, Jeroen Lokerse, Morten Kjer Jeppesen, Ahmed Aboutaleb, Brigit van Dijk - van de Reijt, and moderator Susanne Heering brought their insight into regional and pan-European trends, from investment, finance and sustainable construction to anticipating change and moving with the times. Thank you to CBRE for hosting this event, and to our Executive Director Inger Kammeraat. Find all photos of the event here: https://lnkd.in/eW3hiQxu

Today, we want to share another exciting news with you! Earlier this year, we launched the #ReGreenerationEU project, and we, at Placemaking Europe, are excited to be partners in this consortium of innovative urban regeneration initiatives. ReGreeneration Europe aims to implement greening and renaturing solutions across Europe’s key cities—Paris, Bucharest, Barcelona, and Alverca—and replicating these efforts to Gent, Ljubljana, Rome, Lappeenranta, and Segrate. It focuses on revitalising social housing districts, deprived areas, neglected spaces, abandoned sites, derelict industrial areas, brownfields, and other urban challenges. Our mission is to showcase how nature-based solutions enhance urban climate resilience, liveability, and social cohesion. ReGreeneration will also develop a Digital Twin system to advance urban planning and sustainability, aligning with EU climate goals. At Placemaking Europe, we support municipal districts to engage their communities in decision-making, ensuring interventions are tailored to local needs for lasting impact. We facilitate collaboration between European experts in green-based regeneration and municipal districts, providing both lead and replicator cities with specialised expertise and tools for effective knowledge exchange.

Preparing my presentation for the forthcoming Smart City Expo Curitiba on 'The rise of 20-minute neighbourhoods –how cities can become greener, wilder, more inclusive, livable and poetic. I will be joining a conversation with peer urbanists facilitated by Glaico Gundim dos Santos in one of my best cities of Brazil, Curitiba- home of IPPUC - Instituto de Pesquisa e Planejamento Urbano de Curitiba and of so many co-workers over the years. The overall topic for the discussion is: How can cities foster circular economy and reduce ecological footprint? Do you have any tested ideas...? #SCECWB2024

🌐 That's a wrap for the first day of the Global Business Forum! Our closing session delved deep into the future of real estate, exploring the transformative power of Connectivity + Efficiency + Sustainability. 🌍 Led by industry luminaries like Pavitra Shankar, Managing Director of Brigade Group; John E. Drew, Chair of WTCA, TCMA for Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center (#WTCWashingtonDC); Mr. Naresh V Narasimhan, Managing Partner & Principal Architect, Venkataramanan Associates (VA); Dr. Srinivas Ravindra, Executive Director, Center For Sustainable Development; and Tuan Anh Pham, Ph.D, CIO/CXO, Becamex IDC Vietnam (WTC Binh Duong New City), the discussion shed light on the evolving trends shaping our urban landscapes. "When talking about the sustainability transition, our key challenges are green skills and green jobs. We do not have them in India for now and this is why we created a green institute” — Srinivas Ravindra, Executive Director, Center For Sustainable Development. “In the USA, the demand for sustainability and green buildings is led by tenants/users. Despite all of the knowledge available, competing interests and the lack of infrastructure in place makes it difficult to have a real impact at the city level" — John E. Drew, Chair of WTCA, TCMA for Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center (#WTCWashingtonDC) "The concept of real estate today is moving from being product-centric to being people-centric and engaging your stakeholders” — Dr. Srinivas Ravindra, Executive Director, Center For Sustainable Development.
