More than half of the world’s population currently lives in cities and by 2050 it is estimated that over 70% of the world’s population will live in them. This trend matters because urban areas are the prime drivers of economic growth. Inevitably, this rapid expansion is putting cities’ infrastructure, environment and social fabric under pressure. In this context, the concept of smart city is not just a nice aspiration, but a necessary turn in the way we think, develop, and grow our urban environment. 

How do we take on this challenge, through governance, to reach better cities? In this session we will address this and other topics related to smart cities and governance.

If you're going to be in Brussels, be sure to join us for this lively session and networking cocktail.
