The vision, the proof and the next step. Living is about more than homes. It’s about how people live, move, connect and feel at home. Liven World develops districts where mobility, wellbeing, technology and community are structurally built in; living infrastructure as the fourth utility. Almere Randstad 21 is the first proof at scale: 332 homes, built modularly, with fully integrated living infrastructure. But the story doesn’t stop in Almere. Liven World is working on a licensing model that makes the system replicable per location: from the next municipality in the Netherlands to the European city that faces the same challenge. In this session, the founding partners will take you through the vision, the proof and the European expansion thesis behind living infrastructure. For whom: investors, fund managers, developers and municipalities that are considering the housing market of the next ten years. Speaker: the founding partners - Liven World After the session, we invite you to a drink at stand 12.26. Register via the pink button at the top of the page.
