The European Quote

Jan OLBRYCHT

We are witnessing to the changing functions of city centres. The pandemic accelerated these processes even more and therefore the debate on the future of centres in the cities of the future is extremely important. We need to discuss city centres social functions, including the specificity of housing, but also economic (commercial) and cultural functions.

Arnaud ROBINET

Inner cities are centers of population, wealth, and consumption. But above all, they are strong identified landmarks of our cities. Naturally, each one has its own identity. Having a reflection on their development on a European scale makes possible a high level of standardization in order to take the most effective ideas, to offer a unique experience of shopping.
