LearnInc Idea Business incubators and entrepreneurs training experience is something running-in but it still misses a systemic vision combining together different revitalisation issues and actors. Starting from this scenario LearnInc project aims at developing a brand new solution of integrated VET and business creation in order to help European countries to cope with the common challenge of sustainable urban economic revitalisation mainly supporting micro-clustering processes and new business start up

Pilot Areas Pre-Maddalena Area Ciutat Vella Medieval Urban Structure • Permanent processes of degradation until second half of the ’70s • Now: • A policy of urban regeneration was carried out in Ciutat Vella in the last decades • Urban degradation produced by massive tourism and deprived people (homeless, drug addicts, etc) • Integration of native population and immigrants from really different origins and spoken languages • BUT: • Public plans for the promotion of Barcelona’s economy are not targeted to order and support the economy of the district • Immigrant entrepreneurs usually ignore/don’t use public resources (training, professional advice, etc) 1200 2008 Common topic: Gentrification vs Partecipation During 1980’s, related to the urban decacy of the area, many economic activities left • Now: • Entrepreneurial low value activities • Social decadence, decline and soil • Massive presence of immigrants (ghettoization) Common topic: Formal vs Informal Genoa Barcelona • Several actions were carried out • BUT • the partecipatory approach is particularly challenging • the peculiar urban and social environment thwarts the regeneration plans
Pilot Areas Historic centre of Graz Graz's "Old Town" is one of the best-preserved city centers in Central Europe and in 1999 it was added to the UNESCO list of World Culture Heritage Sites. Graz was sole Cultural Capital of Europe in 2003. Graz is a particularly fine example of the living heritage of a central European urban complex that was under Habsburg rule for many centuries. The old city is a harmonious blend of the architectural styles and artistic movements that have succeeded each other since the Middle Ages, together with cultural influences from the neighbouring regions. The special atmosphere of the Old Town played an important role on the extremely positive and widespread international resonance that awarded Graz the status of "Europe's cultural capital 2003". During the summer months the streets, squares and inner courtyards provide a wonderful backdrop for topclass events. EMİNÖNÜ • Being in the very center of Istanbul, this area is densely populated. • Being the center of all civilizations accumulated over the centuries in Istanbul. • Enormous historical and cultural heritage from different civilizations. • A difficult task to generate consciousness to preserve this historical and cultural heritage due to the large volumes of business activities. Common topic: Densification vs Zoning Historic centre of Kalamata The castle and the historical neighbourhood that surrounds it form the oldest hub of the city of Kalamata. A plethora of religious monuments and buildings located here illustrate the city’s history in a most vibrant and colourful way. Graz • Due to natural disasters and ignorance over time, some part of historic heritage is about to perish. • Now: • many buildings have been turned over to new uses and are being wonderfully renovated to host cultural activities, • the massive presence of students changed the vocation of the area from day to night life. Istanbul Several phenomenon are under observation: • The market area (Grand Bazar) is crowded during the day and deserted in the night time, • the massive presence of people with low incomes and low educational levels from many different parts of the country, • the high value of the historical heritage. Kalamata
Pilot Areas Historic centre of Cluj-Napoca Smolna Street The citadel was destroyed and rebuilt as CIVITAS NAPOCA after the Roman conquest (101-102; 105-106 d. C. until 217 d.C.). In centuries XI and X, the medieval fortress attested as CASTRUM CLUS, had a much limited surface. Warsaw In 1405 CASTRUM CLUS became a FREE ROYAL TOWN (CIVITAS), which contributed to its economic growth. The GUILDS (crafts) started to have a significant role. The walls expanded and included, by the end of the XVI century, a surface of around 45 hectares, surrounded by the guilds of the craftsmen. • Smolna 8 – Warsaw’s first apartment building from the 70’s populated with Polish expats . The aging group of those who returned to Poland from the West with “enormous money”, an apartment there cost $3000 - $5000 • Old elegant apartment buildings from the turn of the century. These days they are low income and senior subsidised housing. Common topic: Preservation vs Changing Cluj-Napoca • School – one of the most visible in Warsaw, however it is hardly involved in community issues, • Cultural Center – with “cultural menu” it just recently started cooperating with the Smolna Association . • Small but very prestigious institutions. • Today the area hosts: • Culture: the National Theatre and Opera; International Cultural Centers and Institutes; Central University Library; the Arts Museum etc. • Main squares • Universities • Local public administration institutions • BUT • The Guilds are lost and with them the traditional economic activities
