Silver garlands sparkle in the sunlight. Streets are sizzling with inspiration. Squares are bursting with enthusiasm. The city is filled with thinkers, visionaries, students, designers, artists, architects, engineers and politicians. The air is charged with excitement as brand new ideas see the light of day.
What happens if a doctor collaborates with a fashion designer? Why do we need blockchain in urban planning? How can technology create a safe environment to talk about mental health? What can robots teach us about what it means to be human? Innovation and disruption start where different disciplines meet. Everybody gets more than they what they came for.
