The Impact of Culture - Creative Businesses for Sustainable Cities

Umeå is Europe’s Capital of Culture. As part of the Umeå2014 programme we invite you to an international conference focusing on how culture-driven growth contributes to sustainable urban development. Welcome to Umeå on 23–24 September 2014!

Make new contacts, acquire knowledge, interact and be inspired! These two days will offer a variety of seminars on the interface
between culture-driven growth and sustainable urban development.  All dimensions of sustainable development will be touched on by examples from both Umeå and other parts of the world.

The conference addresses promoters of entrepreneurship and enterprise development within the cultural and creative industries. In addition, government ministries, government agencies, county administrative boards, regions, municipalities, scholars and industry associations and others involved in local and regional development, including urban planning.
