The project portfolio has grown rapidly during HSB Living Labs' first five years. More than 120 projects have started and we believe that it can be difficult to absorb everything that is going on. Therefore, the vision of the event was to showcase as many projects as possible so that everyone could easily take part in the research and development that is taking place. And maybe even stumble across an area you have not heard of before and gain new insights.
The wide range of projects hosted by HSB Living Lab is quite unique. Here, young entrepreneurs and students share space and cooperate with established companies and advanced academic research, all working towards the common goal of learning about the sustainable housing of the future. The width and amount of projects is in itself interesting, it is a well mixed hub where new contacts and insights are made – for knowledge that can break boundaries.
All features from the event were recorded and are available through the program below!
Features in English shown as (ENG).
