Eindhoven

Working with Eurocities

The City of Eindhoven has participated in several European-funded projects, often in close collaboration with Eurocities as a project partner.

Eindhoven initiated the ‘Lab’ within the Digital Forum and has actively contributed to multiple editions of the programme. Thanks to the Lab, the city has further developped and refined its policies and practices in key areas such as citizen cards, AI and ethics, the city AI algorithm register, digital twins, and the deployment of smart sensors in urban environments. Through the exchange of knowledge and practical experience, Eindhoven has strengthened its role as a frontrunner in responsible and people-centred digital innovation.

With the help of Eurocities, Eindhoven has joined the EU Urban Agenda Partnership on Digital Transformation. Through the partnership, Eindhoven was closely involved in and was able to co-shape policies in this field. A long lasting result, with Eindhoven and Eurocities as co-founders, was the LI.EU – Living in EU initiative on digital transformation of cities and communities. Having an EU wide network and an entry point in each important city in the EU, and a bit beyond.
