Location in exhibition area: Stand D7

Valencia will be the guest city at Greencities & S-Moving 2024. In this way, the Valencian smart ecosystem will be presented as a benchmark in the field of smart urban management, participating in the different areas of the event with the aim of showing the path the city has taken to become a smart city.

The city’s firm commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is evident in its sustainable transport programme, which is part of the European Green Capital initiative. This programme not only promotes greener and more efficient mobility practices, but also reflects a deep commitment to improving the quality of life of its citizens. The city has implemented a number of innovative measures aimed not only at reducing its carbon footprint, but also at promoting a healthier and more accessible urban environment for all its residents. These efforts demonstrate an ongoing commitment to sustainability and to creating a fairer and greener future.

All of this is being done through València Innovation Capital, the city council’s strategy to foster a dynamic, diverse and creative city. Technology is the how and people are the why. València Innovation Capital is committed to solving the city’s real problems with innovations that are local, effective and have a direct impact on people’s lives.

The city will present its success stories, examples of public-private collaboration, challenges and difficulties faced, funding opportunities, collaborations and actors involved.
