Velo-city is the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF)’s annual global summit on cycling. Velo-city is an ECF brand. The Velo-city conference series serves as the major global platform for the exchange of visions, knowledge, expertise skills and good practice on cycling as part of daily transport and recreation and on cycling related policies. More specifically, Velo-city promotes the integration of urban cycle planning into all the relevant public policy sectors, including transport planning, land development, public health, education, environment, economy, energy and human rights.

Situated at the crossroads of Eurovelo bike routes 6 and 1, two major cyclo-tourism routes, Nantes will seek to meet four key objectives as it hosts the next Velo-city event from 2 to 5 June 2015:

Create a replicable model dedicated to regional cities
Build on the strengths and weaknesses of the Nantes experience and other French cities
Reach out to the world
Create a future inspired by cycling
