Re-visioning the structures of human prosperityThe majority of the planet now lives and works in cities. If economic growth is coupled with better networked communities and more environmental friendly practices, human prosperity could be redefined as the win-win formula of the future.In this vision, the entire urban space works interactively with its inhabitants, businesses and public sector to raise the shared value of their communities. They will be assisted by new connective technologies and by a flexible, inclusive approach to urban planning.
Cities around the world are waking up and seeing our planet for what it has become: an urban landscape. This new metropolitan century is just the start of an exciting new era in human existence. If we meet the challenges wisely, humanity could well be on its way to creating the most sustainable and inclusive urban ecosystem in history.
