The Urban Revolution, Innovation and the Future of Cities

There has never been such an intense debate about the transformation of cities as there is today. The 21st century is undergoing the most profound urban revolution ever, in which cities are the main catalyst of economic and social development. 

Likewise, Big Data-based technologies are evolving, and digital disruption will provide new opportunities at cities´ scale to effectively address emerging challenges. In a globalized world, Digital Cities need to continually offer the easiest and most accessible places to live in, learn, work, travel and play.  

Through real examples of innovative development, Flavio Tejada (Director of the Master in Real Estate Development) will explore the increasing relationship between technology, real estate investment and the making of future cities.
