HOSTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH Dedicated to highlighting innovation and effective practices in urban governance, CityLab gathered the world’s most creative mayors and city practitioners with artists, academics, funders, and other public and private sector leaders focused on improving cities and spreading urban strategies that work. This year, with Miami as our campus, we looked forward to meeting in a culturally dynamic city on the cutting edge of urban innovation to once again tackle the most pressing challenges cities face and present innovative ideas for growing livable, sustainable and economically vibrant communities. Miami has one of the most diverse populations in one of the fastest growing regions in the country, where a unique confluence of Caribbean, North and South American cultures adds vibrancy and texture to the civic landscape.
