00:00I credo che l'urbanizzazione humana è assolutamente essenziale.
00:05Alla volta bisogna ricordare che le città sono per le persone, non le persone per le città.
00:15New Baku, Masterplan 2040.
00:19Un'ambito plan set da la governo per turnare Baku in un'unforgettable avventure.
00:25È dove comfort meets sustainability, modernità coppia con la tradizione e la cultura embracere l'harmone.
00:34C'è un'ambito per le nostre negozioni per le nostre negozioni, per stabilire certi tipi di business all'acrosse
00:41Baku.
00:42Specifically, certi tipi di place, sometimes called the third places, perché una place è una casa, la seconda place è
00:49un lavoro.
00:49But the people need the third places, and this is, we're talking about the certain type of the social houses,
00:55we're talking about cafes, we're talking about cafeterias, we're talking about the restaurants.
00:59There are distinctive areas of intended changes, polycentric urban development, a modernized economic structure and creation of new growth strands.
01:08The polycentric city is a city with several cores, which are well-developed, both economically and from a population standpoint,
01:18connected with each other with well-developed transport issues and giving the population the opportunity to get all the services
01:26amenities within 15 minutes.
01:28From employment and infrastructure to economic growth, Azerbaijan already has firm economic foundations generated from traditional industry, but a new
01:37urban economy will open up new finance streams.
01:41What's a new district? The new district is a new possibility, the access to the real estate and Baku White
01:47City is a good example of that.
01:49If we see how very well-established locations, given accessibility to the cafes, stores and generally small, medium enterprises.
02:01Integrating a green approach is a priority for the future of the city to ensure sustainability and quality protects natural
02:09environments, old and new.
02:11So one of the projects that we have been involved in is something called the Green Corridor, which is linking
02:16one park to other parts of the city through one full pedestrian green area.
02:22These parks are going to become the new highways of cities.
02:26It's really going to change the aspect of people in terms of how homes are built, how business is going
02:31to be done, because all of a sudden, all of your catchment area is going to be within this green
02:36network linking the cities.
02:40Being known worldwide for its cultural heritage is a huge advantage for the capital, with its stunning architectural designs reflecting
02:48its rich past and visions of the future.
02:53So, Fouad, tell me about the mix between the traditional and the new.
03:00Well, in fact, what we did right now, we haven't just walked through the wall, we walked through the border
03:06between Asia and Europe.
03:09And when people ask me, is Baku Europe or Asia, my answer is never clear.
03:13It's French, it's like Sadepon.
03:14When you're inside, you're in Asia.
03:16When you're outside, you're in Europe.
03:19And the border is a cleavage in between them, but it's these two elements of East and West, Orient and
03:25Occident, that really shape the identity of Baku and its residents.
03:33It's not that this city is better than the other one, or worse than the other one.
03:37I'm not putting any city above or below.
03:39It's just having the city that is recognizable.
03:42The Master Plan 2040 has several key objectives, integrating as many elements of urban planning as possible.
03:51The best marker of the well-developed area is an ability of its inhabitants to meet all their essential needs
03:59locally.
04:00Nowadays, we all agree that time is the most precious currency.
04:05New Baku allows to use time in a smarter way to achieve a better result and higher profit.
04:12It also means lower rental costs, less pressure in the survival game, and being closer to the target audience.
04:21In the next several years, there will be a number of multi-billion projects realized, already started being realized in
04:30Baku, outside of city center and the historic city center.
04:33And this will also make Baku more interesting, not only from the city center point of view, but also will
04:39support the polycentric idea of the city.
04:42The Master Plan has years to realize its transformative aspirations, to retain the old beauty and intelligently blend in the
04:50new.
04:51So, by 2040, it's likely that we really will be seeing a very new Baku.
04:56The Master Planafter Asia
04:58Grazie a tutti.
