Cities are reaching a crisis point. City populations are growing.1 Citizen satisfaction with government services is weakening.2
And net zero deadlines are looming. Cities recognize that their traditional approaches to city planning, development, management and renewal will not get them to their goals in time.
They must become smarter, more integrated, data-driven and enabling.
As the world faces multiple interrelated challenges, it is in City Halls, on city streets and in city business districts that humanity’s destiny will be decided.
