Approach: Co-creation is part of our DNA
BLOXHUB is the innovation partner for this open call. BLOXHUB is a Copenhagen based Nordic Hub for sustainable urbanization. BLOXHUB members include 350 companies, science institutions, organizations and public bodies – all working with architecture, design, construction and tech. These are the pioneers who will be co-creation solutions with you.
Aim: Why are we doing this
Circular solutions in the built and urban environment is still an emerging movement, and we want to showcase how to take this forward. It is only by actually ‘doing’ we can prove how circularity can have both environmental and economic benefits. Through foundation sponsored programs, we are able to put action behind our intentions and offer this opportunity to match Nordic ideas with a visionary New York actor.

Event Details
As urbanisation continues to accelerate globally, the demand for cities and buildings that can enable better health and well-being for their inhabitants rises. Holistic, cross-sectoral partnerships and new technologies are needed to create buildings that enable people to thrive, both individually and as communities. Therefore, the new Creative Denmark white paper ‘Beyond Buildings’ illustrates frameworks for holistic project planning that goes beyond a single building and the use of smart technologies to address the question of how to create buildings and spaces in between buildings that can improve health and overall quality of life for the many and not only the few. When developing our cities, developing new buildings or reinventing existing ones, sustainability must be a mandatory principle, as we develop cities and homes for citizens. Citizens’ well-being and life-quality must be the starting point for all actions made as we transition towards a greener urban future.
As part of Archtober in NYC, Creative Denmark, Danish Cleantech Hub and State of Green, gather Danish and American public and private experts to celebrate the launch of the new ‘Beyond Buildings’ white paper and to discuss how we create future sustainable cities for citizens.

Event Details
The rapid development in NYC creates new market opportunities and the program is developed by Danish Cleantech Hub in New York and Gate 21, to give the Danish SMEs a flying start in accessing the US market. The program zooms in on a concrete local challenge and invites Danish SMEs to present innovative solutions, to how their products and/or services can solve the challenge and provides an opportunity to pitch their solution towards a panel of public and private purchasers.
About the Challenge
The objective is to create this pocket of the Industrial Business Zone (IBZ) into a viable and vibrant neighborhood hub for the LIC community. Using light as a means of connectivity, 12th Street will be an “always on” neighborhood oasis with safety, function and enjoyment at its foundation. With strategic implementation of smart lighting systems, that bring people together, the Campus at 12th Street is primed to be an iconic destination for LIC and across the five boroughs. The challenge has been submitted by Long Island City Partnerships, International Nighttime Design Initiative and VOREA.
We task the Challenge respondents to propose two Living Lab themes within their pitch: a showcase for best practice public lighting – beyond the street pole-luminaire typical and to facilitate community-based placemaking research (refer to last section: Research and Resources).
