Business models for tomorrow’s heritage

Hub-In, CENTRINNO and T-Factor organize a webinar within New European Bauhaus Festival 2022

As part of of the New European Bauhaus Festival 2022, T-Factor, HUB-In and CENTRINNO will organize a one hour webinar focused on inclusive and sustainable urban regeneration processes in underused heritage areas. The meeting, structured as an online talk, will gather three different approaches to business models and financing systems, presented by the three sister Horizon 2020 projects. 

The cases are wrapped in a single fictional storyline that develops into the event programme:

Can Jane save her city’s old factory? Being a young entrepreneur from a mid-sized European city, Jane is fully dedicated to turning the abandoned building into a flourishing place; a vibrant destination that people and businesses want to be a part of. But the journey is difficult and along the way Jane finds more questions than answers: 

  • How can we take the abandoned factory back to the days when it was a thriving community? 
  • Can we turn it into a sustainable, inclusive, and beautiful space? 
  • Why are some old buildings coming back to life while others are not?
