The first Living-in.EU Mayors Digital Assembly will discuss key priorities in two high-level panels: ‘Leading by examples’ and ‘the city that leaves no-one behind’.

In the first panel city mayors and regional ministers discuss the opportunities for cities to act as open urban platforms for testing new technologies and developing new and better services and solutions such as local digital twins and local data platforms to be upscaled at regional, National, and European level.

The second panel will discuss concrete collaborative practices to overcome digital divide through experimental learning and facilitating access to local public services. The panel discussions are also the opportunity to launch cooperative and ad-hoc actions to be developed during the next 2-years mandate. 

The event will also be the occasion to launch new tools and collaborative initiatives such as the LORDIMAS, to measure the digital maturity of cities and regions.
