Bettina Furrer will provide insights into Winterthur’s integral site development. The head of the city’s Urban Development Office is responsible for economic and site development, housing policy and Winterthur’s Smart City programme. The former industrial city has developed into a location at the interface of industry, services, health and culture. With Smart Machines, Smart Energy and Smart Health, three clusters for the intelligent further development of the economy have been established on the basis of the location’s existing strengths.
Caroline Forte presents the development of the site of the former cardboard factory in the Bernese suburb of Stettlen into the Bernapark area.
