Expert.Urban Launches in 2026 to Redefine City Living Through Global Insights

A new project dedicated to urban development will launch in 2026. Called Expert.Urban, it will examine ways to improve city living by studying global and Russian practices. The initiative comes after a year of reviewing key trends in urban studies and spatial planning.

In late 2025, the Expert.Urban editorial team analysed major developments in urban studies. Their review covered spatial planning and emerging trends in city management. These findings helped shape the direction of the upcoming project.

Starting next year, *Expert.Urban* will become a standalone platform under *Expert* magazine. Its focus will be on urban development strategies that enhance quality of life. The project will explore both international and Russian case studies, though no specific cities or regions have been highlighted yet as models of success. The team aims to provide insights into effective urban policies. By combining global best practices with local experience, they intend to offer practical solutions for modern cities.

Expert.Urban will begin operations in 2026 as part of Expert magazine. The project will rely on research from 2025's review of urban trends. Its goal is to support better planning and living conditions in cities through evidence-based analysis.
