We joined the Portugal Smart Cities Summit in Lisbon, one of Europe's most important gatherings dedicated to urban innovation, where cities, businesses, universities and institutions come together to shape the future of our territories.
The perfect stage for Cool Noons: because rethinking cities during the hottest hours of the day is exactly this: innovation, sustainability and quality of life for residents and visitors alike.

On Friday 17 April, the University of Coimbra hosted a Cool Noons seminar for Master's and PhD students.
Participants applied the Cool Noons methodology to their city, identifying the outdoor tourist attractions most exposed to heat and brainstorming possible solutions. Three working groups, many innovative ideas: sun sails with misters, urban reforestation and fountain water reuse, all while considering tourists, locals, municipal bureaucracy and UNESCO requirements.
Positive feedback from both professors and students. Definitely another step forward to the dissemination of the results and methodology of Cool Noons.
Where is Cool Noons moving next?

Dubrovnik is showcasing the Cool Noons photo exhibition from April 10th to 24th, with the opening scheduled for around 11:00.
It will take place at the TUP complex: the former Carbon-Graphite and Electrotechnical Products Factory was recently purchased by the City of Dubrovnik with the goal to repurpose it as a hub for the creative sector, SMEs and artists. Part of the space has been specifically adapted for art galleries, making it an ideal venue for our exhibition.
Location address: Ul. Svetog Križa 3, 20000, Dubrovnik, Croatia
