Today, the annual Shanghai-Taipei City Forum kicked off in Shanghai, gathering hundreds of urban planners, entrepreneurs, and innovators from both cities. 🤝 The event focuses on sharing fresh ideas and practical solutions for sustainable city development.
Under the theme “Urban Innovation for a Shared Future,” participants dive into workshops on green architecture, smart transport, and digital governance. From sleek skyscrapers to eco-friendly public spaces, experts showcase the latest trends to make city life more vibrant and resilient.
“This forum is a bridge,” said one young planner from Taipei, “where we learn from each other and fuel new cross-strait ties at the city level.” Across keynote sessions and interactive panels, teams brainstorm on climate action, data-driven services, and community engagement tools.
Highlights include a drone-powered inspection demo for infrastructure and a pop-up exhibit on creative reuse of old industrial zones. Attendees can also hop on virtual reality tours of pilot projects, blending tech and design in fun, immersive ways. 🚀
As the Chinese mainland hosts this dynamic exchange, both cities aim to turn inspiration into action—building smarter, greener, and more inclusive urban landscapes. Stay tuned for more updates as the forum continues through the week!
