City
Speakers

In the 2025 edition of Greencities, we are introducing a new initiative: ‘City Speakers’. This space is designed for municipal representatives to present current projects, share challenges, needs and opportunities, and raise awareness of their areas of work. The objective is clear: to generate connections, encourage knowledge exchange and promote collaboration between the public and private sectors.

City Speakers will be held in the Sustainability Area on Thursday, 2 October.

“City Speakers” will feature a structured program based on two types of participation

Both types of presentations will follow a 7-minute pitch format. After submitting the application form, the organizing team will evaluate the proposals and select those that meet the requirements and align with the thematic focus of this edition.

Projects of your municipality

A format aimed at presenting initiatives that address identified needs within the local environment, with a special focus on opportunities for collaboration and involvement from other public or private stakeholders.

Case of success of your municipality

This format is intended for showcasing projects that have already been executed with positive outcomes. These presentations may include the project’s development process, working model, institutional support, funding received, and key lessons learned.
