The Scalable Cities community event “Moving from solutions to system change” will be hosted by the IRIS Smart Cities project on the 1^st and 2^nd of June in Utrecht.

Cities of all sizes need to accelerate their transformation to climate-neutrality in 2050. The sense of urgency and pressure has never been higher – with a target for 100 cities to be climate neutral and a cut to EU-wide emissions in total by at least 55% by 2030.

Event attendees will be encouraged to share and explore the untold stories, triggers and conditions that enable cities to move on from the mere replication of technical solutions to a new innovation narrative based on a more comprehensive systems change. The interactive discussions will: 

• Capitalise on opportunities for climate neutral and smart cities 
• Bust replication myths and explore the reality
• Discover triggers and conditions for systems-change
• Reframe the innovation narrative regarding the scale-up of smart city solutions
• Connect with citizens & stakeholders
