Conference

First CITE Conference

The first CITE Conference will take place in Skellefteå, Sweden, on 9-10 June 2026,
bringing together six European cities undergoing major transformation.

The first CITE Conference will take place in Skellefteå, Sweden, on 9 June 2026, bringing together six European cities undergoing major transformation.

Throughout the day, participating cities will share their experiences of managing change in practice – from industrial transition and workforce development to the evolving attractiveness of places undergoing rapid transformation. The focus is on real-world insights: what has worked, what has proven challenging, and what other cities can learn.

The conference is designed as a moderated exchange, creating space for reflection, discussion, and shared learning between cities facing similar challenges. It offers practical perspectives and lessons that can support cities in navigating complex and fast-moving change.

Selected as a New European Bauhaus (NEB) Satellite Event, the conference connects local transformation to broader European priorities. The programme will also be available online, opening participation to a wider European audience.

A detailed agenda will be published here during April. For more information, please contact Anders Lindgren, Head of CITE Secretariat.
