The history of Brno‘s investments in innovation dates back to 2009 when Brno for the first time supported projects for the development of innovations, such as „Brno PhD. Talent“ or „Innovation vouchers“. Since then we draw key stakeholders into the discussion about priority needs and topics so our city develops into an innovative living lab. Our vision is that the city is the „customer zero“ for solutions that are developed by local firms or research organizations so we can work together on the implementation of innovative solutions.
