What the Future: Cities
The future of cities is up for grabs due to three main tensions: hybridization of work, climate change and affordability. For corporations, this has broad implications for their workforces but also for the kinds of products they need to innovate. That’s true for everyone: Auto companies, office supply makers, tech firms, equipment manufacturers, and even restaurants will have to consider what hybrid life or changing commuting mean for our buying habits and the occasions in which we shop and dine.
