About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

In January 20 000 people from around the world visited the landing page of Malmö’s residency program Malmö Residency. 868 people from 88 countries applied. 8 people spend a month with the city’s professional community.

Join this seminar to learn how this program was conceived, promoted, organised and executed from its creators and funders. And, hear about the experience from the point of view of a participating Resident and company.

The seminar marks the launch of a playbook other cities can use in creating their own Residency program.
