Description

The Silicon Valley case – is business cluster always the best way to stimulate innovation? In this panel we will discuss urban planning trends around the world. Does an interesting diversity of economic, intellectual and cultural players do a better job in driving innovation than gathering similar businesses in industrial parks and regions? Is the Silicon Valley case applicable in other countries? Is it possible to think of a universal model? Is it possible for governments to lead and control urban development to encourage economic and scientific growth? What are the key elements for a thriving and interesting city?
