Port and Industry: Integration Into the City Planning

The upcoming event “Productive City - Port and Industry: Integration Into the City Planning”, set against the theme "Urban Retrofit and the Healthy City," marks the third stop in a journey through European cities NEEXT powered by Drees & Sommer. It will be held in Antwerp, Europe's second-largest port, on July 24th and 25th. Antwerp is chosen for its exemplary blend of industry and urban vibrancy, where maritime and trade operations integrate seamlessly with city life.

The event aims to explore how port and industrial activities can be harmoniously incorporated into city planning. It will focus on innovative methods for creating sustainable urban environments, retrofitting urban infrastructure for enhanced environmental sustainability, and promoting public health, green spaces, and equitable urban planning.

Key topics include:

• "Productive City - Harbour as an Integrated Part of City Planning"
• "Digital Ports Unlocking Opportunity"
• "Sustainable Energy Through Harbours"
• “Digital Energy Twin for the Harbour”

The event is free of charge, and attendees are encouraged to forward the invitation to colleagues if they cannot attend. The organizers look forward to engaging discussions and insights into integrating sustainability and innovation in city planning.
