A PIONEER COMPANY IN URBAN RESILENCE

Barcelona City Council, in collaboration with IQS, started the 3S Project, aimed to guarantee the continuity of service supply in the city under any situation of urban impact.

As a result of this collaboration, the first Barcelona Resilience Board was set up, now successfully running – supporting the management and the coordination of urban services.

Building on this success, OptiCits was established as a private spin-off to develop solutions potentially applicable to any city. OptiCits currently shares its experiences and knowledge via an online Certification Programme in Urban Resilience. The Programme gives free access to the HAZUR tool while requiring to follow a training and certification process; it involves international R&D centers from France, USA and UK and allows the creation of a global network of Certified Urban Resilience Experts from cities and organizations.

INDUSTRIAL KNOW-HOW, APPLIED TO URBAN RESILENCE
