Conference Scope

Sustainability targets and climate change objectives cannot be met without addressing buildings and the built environment at the building, district and urban scale including our transport and energy infrastructures. Renowned for showcasing results coming out of the EU Horizon 2020 and EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme via the participation of cutting-edge research and innovation projects, the scope of Sustainable Places is captured directly in its name. It involves designing, building and retrofitting the places we live and work more sustainably.

Conference Concept

Sustainable Places prides itself on being an ideal platform for the dissemination of research, the conduct of workshops, EU project clustering and networking between stakeholders of all types. SP2024 will be held over three days in a hybrid (digital + in-person) event format. Between opening and closing keynote sessions, parallel technical sessions and project-organized workshops will explore the various conference themes. Given world events we encouraged submissions on technology transfer, renewable energy implementations and energy security to facilitate actions that increase the rate of renovation and renewable energy implementations.

Watch the 2023 highlights

Conference Themes

Each year, Sustainable Places features topics that are shaping how we think about cities and the built environment. Across all editions, Sustainable Places is open to all topics related to building sustainability and most often reflects priorities described in the European Commission Societal Challenges and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
This year we propose the following list of themes. These themes are non-exhaustive and proposals received on other topics related to sustainability will also be examined:

Energy Communities, Smart Cities and Urban Transition

German Governments Digital Summit, 22nd October 2024, Frankfurt
2024-09-13 08:00 - 17:00
This year’s Digital Summit, which has as its theme “Digital Germany-Innovative. Sovereign. International”, will take place in Frankfurt am Main, Germany on the 21st and 22nd of October 2024.

There, the Federal Government will discuss vital issues for our future, such as digital innovation, digital sovereignty and international cooperation, with over 1000 citizens from private and public sectors, the scientific community and civil society.
Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Federal Minister for Digital Dr Volker Wissing, Federal Minister for Economic Affairs Dr Robert Habeck and other members of the Federal Cabinet will be there to answer questions on their digital policy and explain their ambitions for Germany as a digital hub.

Hesse as a partner state and Frankfurt am Main as the venue

Based on their impressive application, the federal state of Hesse and the city of Frankfurt were chosen to host this year’s Digital Summit. As one of the most important centres of the German financial and digital sectors, Frankfurt has a strong data centre landscape and great research expertise, making it an ideal setting for the 2024 Digital Summit. The Federal Government’s summit can truly become a holistic experience for citizens there. The Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport and the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action are organizing this year’s Digital Summit.

Focus on innovation, sovereignty and internationality

Digital innovation shapes our society in a variety of ways. It is a key driver of our economic prosperity. We cannot have digital innovation and a resilient society without digital sovereignty, which is strengthened by a shared international value set. Where is Germany’s potential to lead as a digital pioneer and what are possible challenges? Which digital innovations will be our focus in future? Based on these and similar questions, the Federal Government will showcase the opportunities and potential inherent in its digital policy and present possible solutions.

Eurescom led 5GEOSiS project at 4th IEEE International Symposium on Joint Communications & Sensing
2024-03-19 - 2024-03-21
The Eurescom led ESA project 5GEOSiS – 5G Earth Observation Server in Space will provide a tutorial with the title “Joint Communication and Sensing for Space: Understanding the Convergence of Space Functions through employing repurposable payloads” as part of the 4th IEEE International Symposium on Joint Communications & Sensing . The tutorial will provide the basic elements to understand the requirements, system concepts and potential benefits of Joint Communication and Sensing from Space.The event is scheduled on 19 March in Leuven that will also be streamed.

The integration of communication and radio sensing in the same spectrum is likely to be one of the key features in B5G wireless systems. A joint design of both services will improve the efficiency of spectrum usage, and will offer the opportunity of providing radar as a service, just like communications today. Recent advances in mmWave communications, massive MIMO and machine learning, among others, are making this vision possible, but many technical challenges still remain, from hardware up to the application layer. Therefore, Joint Communications and Sensing (JC&S) is the subject of rapidly growing interest in the research community, and this symposium will focus on the different system and implementation aspects of this promising new approach, bringing together academic and industrial experts from both the radar and communications research communities.
We look forward to welcoming you in beautiful Leuven, Belgium this year. Our local host is the research hub imec. It offers the best conditions for a lively in-person exchange. For those unable to attend, all sessions will also be streamed online and recordings will be available after the event.
