Project summary
In the Alpine Space, metropolisation has given birth to changes in the urban system and in the urban-rural relationships: the dichotomy between small settlements of Alpine towns, villages and hamlets which are influenced by important Metropolitan Growth Areas (e.g. Lyon, Milan, Munich, Vienna, Trieste and other big towns) can be solved through the challenging role played by high-potential small and medium-sized Alpine cities and by the catching and attracting areas around them. InnoCité proposes itself as an empowering tool-kit for key players (politics, local & regional authorities, urban planning agencies, Chambers of Commerce, Craft Chambers, SMEs, Trade Office and Tourist information etc.) which desire to find a complementary positioning towards big Alpine cities and their surrounding rural areas. InnoCité are running seven pilot cases in order to compare practices and results in the various experimentation areas to make it possible to develop an exemplary Alpine Space approach as regards the positioning of a metropolitan peripheral town-centre.
