City
Speakers

At the 2026 edition of Greencities, we are once again hosting the “City Speakers” initiative. This platform is designed to enable local government representatives to present current projects, share challenges, needs and opportunities, and raise awareness of their areas of work. The aim is clear: to forge connections, encourage the exchange of knowledge and foster collaboration between the public and private sectors.

City Speakers will take place on Wednesday 16 September

“City Speakers” will feature a programme structured around two categories of participation: Projects of your municipality and Case of success of your municipality

Both presentations will take the form of a pitch lasting up to 7 minutes. Once the application form has been submitted, the organising team will assess the proposals received and select those that meet the requirements and fit the thematic focus of this year’s event.

Projects of your municipality

A format designed to showcase initiatives that address needs identified at a local level, with a particular focus on opportunities for collaboration and participation by other public or private stakeholders.

Case of success of your municipality

Aimed at showcasing projects that have already been implemented with positive results. These presentations will provide an opportunity to share experiences, working models, institutional support, funding received and lessons learnt
