European Urban Initiative Capacity Building Event

The European Urban Initiative Capacity Building Event in Oulu brings together Finnish cities, European peers, and key stakeholders to examine how cities can strengthen their resilience and competitiveness in a shifting geopolitical environment. The programme covers comprehensive security, strategic autonomy, and the opportunities these priorities open for urban innovation ecosystems.

For the 6G Test Centre, the event is relevant as a forum where test infrastructures and experimentation platforms meet real urban needs. Hannu Nikurautio joins Workshop 7 to discuss how dual-use technologies and closer cooperation between cities, research, and industry can support resilient urban systems.
