The workshop “An Alternative for the future: Silver Economy for cities and regions” has been a huge success. As an event within the framework of the European Week of Regions and Cities 2017 in Brussels, the workshop on October 10 has attracted around 250 representatives from local and regional authorities, business and service providers, academia and civil society to hear about the social and economic benefits that lay in the European Silver Economy. In light of a rapidly ageing population, the workshop aimed at mobilising all European stakeholders, in particular cities and regions, as change agents in order to address issues like sustainability, user involvement, active and healthy ageing and innovative business modelling.
