    Close up of a persons face and a view of a city sky line

    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 recognise 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.
