and environmentally sustainable, we need to uncover the ‘ingredients’ that are required to allow innovative and entrepreneurial behaviour to emerge and flourish in this specific urban context – in Historic Urban Areas by building on
their unique history and heritage.

This reference paper provides the background research and a detailed evaluation of the key ingredients identified illustrated with a case study, and indicates that the combination and interaction with each ingredient to achieve transformation change / inclusive and regenerative growth.

This paper is intended as a starting point of this model and will be refinedfrom learnings throughout the HUB-IN project to better reflect the realities of HUAs throughout Europe.
