Abstract
Miasto Stołeczne Warszawa ma ambicje, aby zostać światową metropolią, która rozwija się dzięki innowacjom i zaawansowanym technologiom. Miasto odbudowano z ruin po II wojnie światowej, ale wciąż brakuje mu dobrego zagospodarowania przestrzennego i problematyczna pozostaje kwestia nieodpowiedniej infrastruktury i systemu komunikacyjnego. Co więcej, niekontrolowany rozwój miasta poza jego granice administracyjne powoduje, że władze Warszawy nie mają kontroli nad całym obszarem metropolitalnym, chyba że dojdą do porozumienia z włodarzami okolicznych gmin. Niniejszy artykuł wskazuje, że Warszawa nie może być ekonomicznie konkurencyjnym miastem w skali światowej, dopóki nie stworzy się warunków sprzyjających innowacjom i zrównoważonemu rozwojowi. Autorka proponuje utworzenie samorządu regionalnego w Warszawie dla obszaru całej metropolii, z tego względu, że gospodarka światowa jest oparta właśnie na współpracy regionalnej. Inwestycje usprawniające łączność regionalną, dostępność i konkurencyjność gospodarczą nie tylko stwarzają lepszy klimat dla innowacji w Warszawie, ale także zwiększają jej zdolność do pozyskiwania funduszy z Unii Europejskiej, która określa priorytety zintegrowanego rozwoju gospodarczego sprzyjającego zrównoważonemu rozwojowi i inkluzyjnemu wzrostowi. Artykuł sugeruje również, że Warszawa wkrótce będzie miała nowe centrum, w rejonie Pragi, które stanie się przykładem dla urbanistyki i zrównoważonego rozwoju. Model rozwoju Barcelony to doskonały przykład do naśladowania dla wspomnianego centrum, ponieważ barcelońska dzielnica innowacji łączy w przestrzeni miejskiej elementy sektora kreatywnego i prywatnego, który może rozwijać się w bliskości publicznej infrastruktury, udogodnień, parków i mieszkań.
