Fab City
Global Initiative
Until cities produce (almost) everything they consume.

Join a global challenge to transform cities
Fab City is an innovative urban model that relocalises production to the city and its bioregional context, by empowering communities with the technology to build their own sustainable, innovative, and regenerative urban futures.
The Fab City Digital Ecosystem Declaration
We are carefully processing the valuable feedback received during the open consultation period. Stay tuned as we prepare to unveil the final outcome in Bhutan this July. Want to learn more about this collaborative journey?
