Former IMAGINE foresight seminars took place every year in November at the Royal Salt Works of Arc & Senans (FR) :

The Royal Salt Works of Arc & Senans (FR) is a UNESCO World Heritage site whose history was closely linked to energy, from its beginnings until its demise. The Royal Salt Works is a symbolic site and a place of practical utopia. It is therefore a highly suitable venue for our exchanges. The place is lindly made available to us free of charge by the Conseil Général du Doubs (Doubs County Council). See all the partners involved in the IMAGINE initiative.

The goal of the IMAGINE seminar is to continuously develop and refine the IMAGINE concepts that will sustain other actions of the initiative. It gathers every year about 40 people around a set of crucial issues on what could be "the energy future of our cities". The third edition of the IMAGINE seminar was held in Arc-et-Senans from 18th to 20th of November 2008. The theme of the year was "Change course ! Towards a sustainable… and desirable future"
