Workshop: Wicked Problems to Bold Collaboration

​How public and private actors can turn complex societal challenges into actionable innovation partnerships.

Municipalities and public agencies are under growing pressure to respond to complex challenges — from sustainability and resilience to inclusion, service pressure and rapid technological change. These are not problems that can be solved by one actor, one department or one sector alone.

This workshop explores how public and private actors can work together to turn complex societal challenges into shared innovation efforts with real momentum. Building on cases and insights from the conference, we will examine how to move from broad ambition to practical action: identifying the real challenge, understanding the barriers, and shaping concrete next steps that can be carried forward across sectors.

Through case-based inspiration, facilitated group work and structured methods for co-creation, participants will explore where collaboration often gets stuck — and what it takes to unlock stronger public innovation capacity, better market
