LEARNING OBJECTIVES

3SPONSORED BY:

To compete in today’s global landscape or local market

(and anywhere in between), technology needs to become

part of a community’s DNA and be the foundation for all

change. Technology and innovation impact

environmental, economic, and social sustainability in our

communities and nations. How should leaders and

stakeholders get organized around these phenomena to

take advantage of opportunities and stay competitive in

today’s global economy? After this program, you will better

appreciate the impact Information and Communications

Technology (ICT) and the “Internet of Everything” have on

the building, regeneration, and sustainment of communities

around the world. Using case studies that provide real-life

examples and context, this program will help shape your

playbook and toolkit to address the planning, design, and

realization of 21st century infrastructure and communities.

Participants in this program will discuss how to take

advantage of the digital age, and explore the necessity

and complexity of organizing communities around

common and targeted goals. You will develop the

framework and tools for imagining and building the smart

city of the future.
