We were pleased to collaborate with Thunderbird School of Global Management for this globinar, "Smart Cities: Global Urban Innovation". Introductory comments were shared by Director General and Dean Sanjeev Khagram. The program was moderated by Bas Boorsma, Professor of Practice at Thunderbird.
Listen to this informative and important program HERE.
How does the phenomenon of a ‘smart city’ fit into larger sociological and technological traditions, trends and thoughts? There are various drivers for the purpose of a smart community - environment, technology, ‘the citizen,’ and, in a post COVID-19 world more important than ever, resilience of communities. What will the agenda look like in the forthcoming ten years and how do we prepare?
The full line-up included...
