EVENT July 29-30: 2021 Knight Smart Cities Lab

This event is intriguing…

As communities continue to rebuild and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, how can they harness the lessons they’ve learned in the past year to build resiliency and prepare for future challenges?
At the 2021 Knight Smart Cities Lab on July 29-30, we’ll convene community leaders and technologists to explore how to leverage federal funding, data and digital technology to help make equitable decisions and improve quality of life for residents in 2021 and beyond.
