Hvordan kan startups og ny teknologi være med til at udvikle Aarhus? Hvad skal politikerne prioritere i næste valgperiode?

​Danske Tech Startups og Startup Aarhus inviterer til en valgdebat, hvor vi stiller skarpt på, hvordan iværksættere kan bidrage til byens velfærd, klima, mobilitet og erhvervsudvikling. Kommunalpolitik handler i høj grad om rammerne for hverdagen, men også om at skabe de bedste forudsætninger for innovation, vækst, nye arbejdspladser - og for at starte og vokse virksomhed i Aarhus.

​Startups er kendetegnet ved at være hurtige til at udvikle nye løsninger - ofte på netop de områder, hvor kommunerne står over for store udfordringer. Alligevel oplever mange iværksættere, at det er svært at komme i spil i kommunale sammenhænge. Udbud, samarbejdsmodeller og risikovillighed er blot nogle af de barrierer, der skal overvindes, hvis byens innovationskraft skal udnyttes fuldt ud.

​Til debatten samler vi startups og kommunalvalgskandidater for at  diskutere:

• ​Hvordan kan kommunen bedst sikre, at startups bliver aktive medspillere i at løse byens udfordringer?
• ​Hvilken rolle kan AI og digitale løsninger spille i fremtidens velfærd?
• ​Hvad bør politikerne prioritere, hvis Aarhus skal være blandt Europas bedste byer at starte og skalere virksomhed i?

​Deltagende byrådskandidater:

• ​Steffen Skovfoged, Venstre
• ​Metin Lindved Aydin, Radikale Venstre
• ​Shawn Patrick Owens, Det Konservative Folkeparti
• ​Sarah Jarsbo, Enhedslisten

​Debattens ordstyrer er Mette Hoberg Tønnesen fra Startup Aarhus.

​Kom og vær med til en inspirerende eftermiddag, hvor vi sætter startup-perspektivet ind i kommunalpolitikken og ser på, hvordan lokale beslutninger kan skabe global impact.
