Welcome to JIBS Shaping our Future 2023: Exploring the Future of our Cities!
JIBS Shaping our Future is a Sustainability Festival that explores how societal, public, and private collaborations, technology and ground-breaking ideas can help create a thriving society for all. We are all invited to engage for the future we want!
Save the date: November 7th 2023, a day to explore the future of cities with a close focus on Jönköping.
What will Jönköping look like in 2030? How can we accelerate the sustainability transition of urban areas? How can we re-invite nature? What if we would all collaborate together to create safer, more inclusive cities for everyone?
Together we will imagine, share ideas and network for all cities’ regenerative future.
