In this episode of Urban Reverb, host Anthony Colclough explores how Brussels, San Sebastián, and Cesena are turning smart city visions into reality through major EU-funded projects: CIVIC, REPLICATE, and INSMART. The episode highlights three key success factors—stakeholder engagement, cross-departmental collaboration, and strong long-term vision. Tom Van Lier shares how Brussels is addressing congestion by harmonising construction logistics. Nora Mendoza discusses San Sebastián’s holistic smart city approach and citizen involvement. Sofia Burioli outlines Cesena’s efforts to overhaul energy planning and foster internal municipal cooperation. The episode concludes with Claire Baffert from EUROCITIES explaining how the Covenant of Mayors empowers cities to take climate action.
