Urban Hub Europe in Malaga
By Inger Hanne Vikshåland October 16, 2025
Urban Hub Europe (UHE) has taken a decisive step forward from a shared vision to a shared plan of action. At our biennial Partnership Summit in Málaga, Spain, we focused on communication strategy, future EU projects, and funding opportunities. What began in 2023 as a cooperation between Bloxhub (Denmark), Nordic Edge (Norway), KIRAhub (Finland), Munich Urban Colab (Germany), ConTech (Denmark), Estonian Digital Construction Cluster (Estonia), and Smart City Cluster (Spain) is now moving ahead with a common platform and a clear direction. For cities, urban planners, and organisations working toward sustainable urban development, this growing partnership offers something powerful: access to an interconnected European network where expertise and resources are shared to accelerate the transition towards green cities.

The biannual UHE Summit took place this year at KiraHub , which is part of the Maria 01 community. The focus of the event was a review of the joint activities of the past year and a discussion about future goals. Representatives of the various hubs exchanged views on successful projects, challenges and goals of Urban Hub Europe.
