Connective Cities Dialogue Events: Promoting Innovative and Sustainable Start-ups

The international city platform Connective Cities provides global and demand-based services to improve the cooperation of urban practitioners. It enhances the exchange of best practices, expert knowledge, solution-oriented consulting and creates partnership opportunities among stakeholders in the event.

Connective Cities addresses questions related to regional economic development driven by sustainable policies and strategies. It illustrates best practices in the overarching fields of good urban governance, integrated urban development, and support of local economic development strategies.

Held in Berlin in December 2014, the Connective Cities dialogue event focused on “Promoting Innovative and Sustainable Start-ups” and Borderstep director Klaus Fichter delivered a keynote address on “entrepreneurial ecosystems: internationalization as a key trend.”
