Cities are becoming important centers of innovation. Technologies such as autonomous vehicles, the internet of things, blockchain, and green buildings are going to make our built environments radically smarter, flexible, efficient, and livable.

Lee will look at how will cities evolve and change over the next fifty years?  He will also discuss how Wilmington can thrive during the coming urban renaissance.
