The majority of humans live in urban areas, and billions more will in the coming decades. The only way to prepare for this massive shift is to create new cities and innovate existing ones. We are hosting an event to champion ideas of treating cities just like startups. Join us to chat about entrepreneurship, urbanism, and decentralization. We hope to demystify the concepts of starting new types of societies.
