Opening Plenary Session

Date: Monday, 9 July 2018
Time: 10:35am

Cities have become the world's dominant demographic and economic clusters, and we are seeing the rise of "megacities". Increased urbanisation, rising demand for resources and climate change will inhibit many cities' potential to be engines of progress and prosperity. How should urban, water, environment and transport management evolve to keep pace with urbanisation? At the Opening Plenary session, high-level speakers from government, international organisations, and industry sectors will share insights on cross-disciplinary policies, management strategies, and solutions.

World Cities Summit Plenary Session

Is Collaboration the Panacea for Liveable and Sustainable Cities of the Future?

Date: Tuesday, 10th July 2018
Time: 1:45pm-3:00pm

The WCS Plenary rounds off discussions over two days. It will pull together the insights and best practices, with a focus on embracing the future through innovation and collaboration. Cities are the sources and centres of innovation. Better collaboration between people-public-private is key to provide an enabling digital environment to support growth without stifling innovation and ensure that people are not left behind amidst the fast pace of globalisation and urbanisation. While challenges from social unrest, environmental deterioration, and economic stagnation are inevitable, city leaders can lead and affect real changes through good urban governance, prudent financing approaches and piloting of innovations.

Session 1: What should Mayors do to Embrace and Capitalise on Disruptive Innovations?

This session will discuss key governance instruments that mayors can use to transform disruptive innovations into opportunities that will help advance the development of cities. It will explore how cities can better prepare themselves to embrace innovation, adapt to new technologies, and successfully navigate disruptive business models to counter new challenges.

Speakers
Prof. Alexander Zehnder

Session 2: No Investment, No Cities - What Can Mayors Do to Attract Financing for Infrastructure Projects?

This session will look at how the increasing involvement of the private sector in infrastructure projects has resulted in less direct supervision or ownership by local governments. In the quest for funds through alternative models of financing and investment, are mayors losing control over how cities should be developed? Will governance be increasingly critical to ensure that the public interest and project longevity are not compromised at the expense of short-term commercial gains?
