Europe has turned urban innovation into a driver of quality of life and competitiveness. From historic cities integrating digital solutions to new developments designed under sustainability principles, the region leads in smart mobility, decentralized energy management, and participatory planning. Initiatives such as the “100 Climate-Neutral Cities by 2030” demonstrate Europe’s commitment to greener, more connected, and more resilient urban environments. At the European Infrastructure Institute, we help transfer these best practices internationally, designing urban strategies that combine technology, social inclusion, and environmental regeneration.
European benchmarks in inspiring numbers:
- 100+ cities committed to climate neutrality by 2030.
- 15,000 km of interconnected bike lanes.
- 85% coverage of digital urban services.
- 40 m² of green space per inhabitant on average.
- 48% municipal waste recycling rate.
