Paris La Défense at the Urban Projects Forum on November 12, 2026
For more than 25 years, the Urban Projects Forum, organized by Innovapresse, has brought together key players in urban development to address major issues in regional planning. Once again this year, Paris La Défense will participate in this must-attend event to present the Delta Vert project in Nanterre.
On Thursday, November 12, 2026, teams from Paris La Défense will speak at a conference dedicated to the Delta Vert project, one of the latest major development projects in the Seine-Arche ZAC in Nanterre.
Conference: “Delta Vert: Shaping the Landscape with What’s Already There”
From 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Paris La Défense will host a conference titled “Delta Vert: Creating Landscape with What Already Exists.”
As the final major project of the Seine-Arche ZAC in Nanterre, Delta Vert aims to transform an area dominated by infrastructure into a 15-hectare metropolitan park, extending the Chemin-de-l’Île Park.
The project is part of an approach that is both ecological and social, with several goals: to strengthen urban and landscape continuity, to develop public spaces adapted to climate challenges, to promote sustainable transportation, and to highlight a unique ecological and agricultural heritage.
Speakers:
- Estelle Citerne, Project Manager at Paris La Défense;
- Aurélie Boisselet, Director of Urban Planning Projects at Paris La Défense;
- Patrick Bouchain, Grand Prix de l’Urbanisme, Association du Parc Rural Expérimental;
- Nadia Herbreteau, President and Associate Director of the firm Ilex Paysage + Urbanisme.
