Utrecht: What’s in it for you?

About a town and it’s foreign residents. Over the last years the city of Utrecht has steadily been working on its transformation from a sleeping beauty to a towering woman. Or, at least that is, if we believe Richard Florida and his latest theory on ‘who is your city?’. Utrecht promotes itself as a medieval city, with a young, creative and cultural atmosphere. Somehow the tags personal and dreamer also show up at the PRwebsite. Having said all this the question remains: How do you see and judge Utrecht? What are the positive sides of living in this town as an expat? What almost makes you run away again? This evening Utrecht, represented by council members, your companies and the educational institutions want to invite you to speak out on the town you are living in. In the cultural setting of the Tumult room our moderator of the evening Patrick van der Hijden invites you to debate the city’s branding manager, and other Utrecht decision makers. Also with DJ DNA (former Urban Dance Squad, now Stuurboord Bakkebaard).
When: Monday 18 may/Time: 8.00 pm/Where: TUMULT, Domplein 5/Free Entrance/Information and reservations: 030-2332430/www.tumultdebat.nl.
This debate will be in English.
