Urban Partnerships facilitate the creation of new collaborations within the built environment, thereby enhancing the innovation capacity of BLOXHUB members and partners. We address complex challenges that demand diverse expertise, working together within undefined problem spaces.
Through four distinct formats, we implement partnership-driven approaches to tackle “wicked problems” where the built environment can make a significant difference.
WHAT WE OFFER
Urban Partnerships promote collaboration in the built environment, increasing the innovation potential of BLOXHUB members and partners. By addressing multifaceted, interdisciplinary challenges, we help advance societal goals where the built environment can substantially have an impact. Our approach includes four tailored formats: Ideation Workshops, Domain-Specific Workshops, Roundtable Sessions, and the Emerge Program – each designed to facilitate effective partnership-based solutions for complex urban challenges.
Collaborative Problem-Solving with IDEATION WORKSHOPS
Our Ideation Workshops bring participants together to tackle specific, real-world challenges within the built environment. These workshops provide a dynamic, hands-on space where attendees can dive deeply into urgent issues—whether it’s enhancing urban sustainability, adapting to climate change, or reimagining community spaces. By focusing on participant-driven challenges, the workshops spark innovative thinking and generate fresh ideas that lay the groundwork for impactful, practical strategies to address the evolving needs of our cities.
In-Depth Exploration through DOMAIN-SPECIFIC WORKSHOPS
The Domain-Specific Workshops are structured as a series of 2-4 interconnected sessions diving into essential urban themes within BLOXHUB’s core focus areas: urban systems, nature, and communities. Each workshop series examines a chosen theme from multiple perspectives, encouraging participants to engage with complex issues that affect the future of urban living. Through this multidimensional approach, the workshops generate insights that drive strategic innovation and creative problem-solving.
Focused Collaboration with ROUNDTABLE SESSIONS
Roundtable Sessions offer a structured, two-hour format for targeted discussions on pressing challenges or emerging topics. These sessions bring BLOXHUB members together to explore ideas, assess partnership potential, and gain immediate insights. They are ideal for identifying the next steps and uncovering funding opportunities to drive progress.
Tailored Market Access with EMERGE
Emerge provides structured access to international markets through collaboration with sector-specific “challenge owners.” This strategic approach encourages meaningful interactions with potential global clients, with insights captured in a “playbook” to unlock concrete business opportunities.
