The City as a Data Ecosystem: Unlocking the Value of Distributed Data in Cities and Regions
SESSION DAY 1
The biggest blocker to data-driven cities isn’t technology — it’s siloed governance. This talk shows how to align data-sharing tech with incentives, roles, standards, and funding across all actors. The result: functioning data ecosystems where distributed data can power real services in energy, climate, mobility, planning, and housing — and move cities from pilots to outcomes at scale.
