摘要

Leuven is the eighth-largest city in Belgium with more than 100,000 inhabitants. It is a leading region in the creation of starts-ups, research centers, and applications on health and climate. Numerous organizations in the Leuven region and the city administration itself are currently cooperating in order to work out advanced ideas around Smart City technology, which is also a crucial step in Leuven’s goal to become climate neutral by 2030. For this particular goal, the organization Leuven 2030 was founded. Leuven 2030 strives for a climate-neutral future for Leuven, representing inhabitants, companies, civil society organizations, knowledge institutions, and public authorities. They do this by combining science (scientific framework), social power (bringing people together around projects), and storytelling (inspiring stories about the steps taken).
