By 2050, over 70% of us will live in cities. But are our cities ready? Today, cities face challenges such as aging infrastructure, inadequate transportation, and inefficient bureaucratic processes.

Our cities must grow smarter—and we're going to need a whole new generation of people with entirely new skills to help.
