Beyond Buildings: Shaping Greener Cities

A conversation on innovative, sustainable initiatives that reimagine tomorrow's urban environments

For the fourth edition of Beyond Buildings, Boyan Slat, founder and CEO of The Ocean Cleanup, and Jelle Burger, urban innovation team lead at the Resilient Delta, will join us for a forward-looking dialogue on sustainable urban transformation. The discussion will be moderated by Tara Lewis.

Why are cities and oceans, two very different environments, such powerful starting points for driving broader environmental change? How can we navigate complexity when tackling large-scale challenges? And ultimately, how can we turn innovative concepts into real-world solutions?

This conversation will explore the intersection of environmental technology, urban resilience and systems innovation, highlighting both applied strategies and the research driving them. Together, they will discuss practical approaches and visionary thinking aimed at reimagining urban environments in response to climate, ecological, and societal challenges.
