Inner City Economic Summit

Based in Boston, the Initiative for a Competitive Inner City (ICIC) is a nonprofit research and strategy organization and the leading authority on U.S. inner city economies and its businesses. Founded in 1994 by Harvard Business School Professor Michael Porter, ICIC strengthens inner city economies in a multitude of ways. The organization’s knowledge of inner city success factors and developing companies springs from their specialized urban networks and path-breaking research.

At the same time as our cities become more desirable places to live thanks to the draw of cultural facilities, parks, transportation, restaurants, and sporting events, they are also hurtled into the pursuit to find ways to accommodate growth. Since economic development initiatives are at the forefront of city agendas, we now wonder how to promote equitable urban revitalization and foster economic opportunity for all residents.

LIVE: CNU 20 Session Streamed Live on EngagingCities - [Looking Forward: New Urbanism and the New World]

Check out live streaming of CNU 20's - Looking Forward: New Urbanism and the New World. As the Congress for New Urbanism enters its third decade, economic, political, and environmental conditions pose serious challenges for the built and natural environment, as well as New Urbanist practice. Three of CNU's Founders will open this session with lectures addressing these challenges. Andres Duany will present the 21st century crises that call for New Urbanists to adapt, including slow development, the public process, suburban retrofit, agricultural urbanism, and the theology of metrics. Dan Solomon will discuss the tensions between new urbanism's roots in the nuanced complexity of the city and the reductive codifying of New Urbanist practice.

Editor's Note: This event has concluded; live stream may no longer be available. Check back here, or on cnu20.org, for archive links of this session.
