The acceleration of “smart” technology is supporting the need for cities, industries, and facilities to adopt and integrate new trends to be efficient in many ways, stay competitive, preserve and sustainably grow economies, and build and retain talent.
At the forefront of this evolution is the A/E/C industry, which is largely responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure and capital projects that support private and public initiatives and turn our cities into “smart” cities. The push for smart cities brings with it unique challenges and opportunities that must be addressed for our cities and our industry to remain competitive and sustainable.
The 2020 Leadership in Capital Projects (LinCP) Forum serves as a connection point for our industry, bringing civic and business leaders together with top professionals in architecture, engineering and construction, who are all leading the charge to “future proof” our cities. Each session targets a crucial aspect of future proofing the smart city and together create a broader vision for our cities to follow.

ABOUT
3 KEY TOPICS:
Each of our three Key Topics includes: presentations, panel discussion, facilitated table discussion, and audience participation using Poll Everywhere, and open discussion.
Topic 1: Smart LIVING
This session looks at what it means to truly live in and experience a smart city. While technology brings many advantages, it also brings many unintended consequences, as it demands not only the right hardware and software, but also digitally savvy citizens and leaders. To attract and retain diverse citizens requires a culture that encourages and supports all people - a true sense of place that merges the old with the new without losing the unique personality of the city. Presenters and panelists will discuss various efforts and examples from academia, design, and urban planning and development that address these challenges.
Topic 2: Smart INVESTMENTS
A smart city requires strategic investment in the right projects and infrastructure that will move the needle toward a sustainable, technological and livable future. Technology can quickly become obsolete, so reducing waste and ensuring longevity are key to smart investments of public and private dollars. The scale and scope of the smart city require investment from all sectors. Panelists will discuss the criteria for sound investments in smart city projects, where the investments will come from, and what we can do to maximize the ROI and sustainability in order to truly future proof our cities.
Topic 3: Smart CONNECTIONS
The rise of technology has blurred the lines between agencies and stakeholder groups. No longer can public agencies and private companies operate in silos. A future-proofed, smart city requires collaboration and teamwork to successfully execute. It requires agencies to come together to deliver a cohesive experience for citizens and breaking barriers to share information and resources. In this session, panelists will discuss the power of connecting the dots between various interests and the challenges to collaboration. The intention is to overcome real and perceived barriers and to work together to plan, design, and construct our cities to achieve the common goal of having a quality place to live, work, and play.
