Conference Focus
More than half of the world today is living in urban areas, from small towns to huge megacities. The world's economic system is increasingly an urban one with overlapping networks of transportation, production and trade. A city's prospects thus depend critically on effective city planning and management in terms of physical planning, social and economic development as well as city regeneration in order to build livable and sustainable cities.
This conference focuses on addressing issues, providing solutions and highlighting successful case studies to issues pertinent in City Development such climate change, encouraging economic betterment in inner cities, promoting investments, creating sustainable urban planning strategies, downtown regeneration, PPP, new township development, developing city infrastructure, preserving cultural heritage, disaster management and many more.
A strategic vision is required to foster a metropolitan growth and competitive plan. Forward thinking and integrated planning are required to manage and sustain the growth. In order to confront the challenges posed by this unprecedented rate of urban growth and increasing urban poverty, cities need to plan ahead in order to make more strategic choices. A vision of this scale can only be met by turning ideas and experience into action; so whether you are a driver or enabler towards City Development efforts and projects, you will find this highly anticipated 4th Annual City Development conference an excellent platform to network, exchange ideas, seek business opportunities and to tap into the experience of key industry leaders.
