Track 3: Economic Development and Eco Cities

📈 Driving Eco Dev 4.0 and the future with ecocities: Entrepreneurial governments to drive entrepreneurial success and stronger, more sustainable economies: Boston and Strasbourg economic development leaders are coming together to pioneer a fresh model that allows for an open discussion around the ongoing, sometimes challenging, technological (r)evolution. In this track, we invite cities and economic development offices from around the globe to join and share their insights, needs and potential resources that may be useful for others. The goal is to explore new synergies between cities, exchange ideas, and ideally create new partnerships that will bring value to the local economies and create more sustainable cities. Topics will include: Making territories more attractive to entrepreneurs, investors and large employers, as well as, the future of cities: Greener, cleaner, safer and fun to live in!

Track 4: Helping the business “middle-class” partner with startups

🤝Mid-size businesses, startups and creativity mixer: Our ecosystem already contains a strong mix of large corporates and startups. This year we aim to attract more mid-sized companies that are typically impacted by today’s new business realties and invite them to explore the opportunities that exist when partnering with startups and creatives or using their methodologies to grow. Leaders of mid-size businesses will be invited to join, later on, a collective Boston and Strasbourg ecosystem exploration. Stay tuned for more.
