Inclusive and open initiative to drive change in European cities

The focus group aims to address the intricate dynamics involved in the smart city community and emphasises the need for cities to start retrofitting. Recognising the importance of clear communication and raising awareness about the topic, a series of workshops and meetings will be organised for the members of this focus group.

To ensure an inclusive and collaborative approach, the focus group will serve as a working platform. Members will have the opportunity to collaborate on documents, drive decision-making processes, and coordinate activities throughout the year. Regular meetings, either in-person or online, will be scheduled to facilitate effective communication and progress tracking.

The focus group encourages open dialogue and welcomes participation from all interested parties. It acts as a forum for stakeholders from all across Europe to share their perspectives, exchange ideas, and shape the future of renewable energy in a representative and unique manner. The success of this endeavor hinges on the active involvement of individuals and organisations invested in promoting sustainable practices.

In conclusion, the focus group represents a pivotal step toward empowering cities to start renovation processes and fostering economic resources through the help of the Smart Cities Marketplace Matchmaking Team. Through collaboration and shared vision, a greener and more sustainable future is within reach. Deep Retrofit solutions could serve as a solution to addressing environmental and energy needs.
