For decades, innovation districts were campuses outside the city, as independent ecosystems. In recent years, the trend is shifting to new models that are emerging: these districts are now integrated into the urban fabric of our cities and bring together universities, research, life-sciences, tech businesses and cultural institutions.
 
These urban clusters are now at the heart of our cities, and are developing on an international scale. What is the impact of these innovation districts in the urban fabric of London and New York? 
 
The recently launched NLA’s report on ‘Innovation District, Designing inclusive places’ presents best practices, key lessons and ideas for creating inclusive innovation districts for built environment professionals. 
 
London and New York took this opportunity to present their innovation districts projects and their impact on cities. This event formed part of the NLA City Dialogues programme, which brings together speakers and audiences to foster cross-city dialogue and learning between cities.
