The Future Cities Laboratory, as one of the missions of the Beijing-Paris Common Action Plan (2018-2023), will be established at the Sino-French Engineer School of Beihang University.
Professor Hong Guanxin, Dean of the Sino-French Engineer School, said, “This lab marks the new progress of Beijing-Paris twin-cities relationship, and will further strengthen cooperation between Beihang University and Groupe des Ecoles Centrale.”

Benefiting from the cooperation between Beijing and Paris, the Future Cities Laboratory aims to develop into an intellectual powerhouse for new knowledge, technologies and talents to address the challenges of urban future.
