Horizon NEB: Capital Markets for Neighbourhoods
Funds research consortia designing and testing new routes for private capital into New European Bauhaus-aligned neighbourhood renewal projects across the EU.
Small neighbourhood projects that fit the New European Bauhaus vision — renovating a housing block, redesigning a public square, turning a heritage building into a community space — struggle to get funded. They're too small and too local for the large, short-term, risk-averse investment funds that current financial rules (the EU Taxonomy, Fit for 55, the European Social Fund+) tend to shape. This …
A capital-markets study paired with a working investment solution: analysing why private and institutional capital isn't flowing into New European Bauhaus-aligned neighbourhood transformation projects, then designing, validating and publishing an investment approach — built on place-based impact investing — that closes the gap. The solution has to be tested on real NEB-aligned projects in at least three Member States or Associated Countries, and has to build on the Commission's own New European Bauhaus Investment Guidelines.
