On March 2 and 3, 2016 the URBAN FUTURE Global Conference, one of the world’s largest events for sustainable city development, will happen in Graz. Austrian’s second biggest city will become an international hot spot for concepts about cities of the future. Around 1,500 participants will be able to hear about the newest developments in urban mobility, climate protection, resource preservation and communication in large cities. City changers from four continents like for example former Berlin mayor Klaus Wowereit, Israeli city development expert Hila Oren and Danish-Canadian mobility expert Mikael Colville-Andersen will be present their ideas and engagement at the conference.
