HUB-IN is an EU funded project that wants to transform and regenerate Historic Urban Areas (HUAs) while preserving their unique cultural and social identity and the environment.

Eight city pilots are working on their selected historic area and transform it in a "Hub of Innovation and Entrepreneurship" by co-developing new business models and innovative solutions that will bring together sustainability and cultural heritage.

HUB-IN cities will develop action plans for their HUA based on the needs and values of the local community, according to the principles of circular and sharing economy.
They will make sure local stakeholders and citizens will be able to contribute to the regeneration of their HUA by using engagement methods, and innovative tools, and developing alternative financing models and acceleration programs for start-ups.
