The Metropolis Initiative advances urban technological innovations that make cities more sustainable, resilient, and equitable. Instead of passively responding to technological advances, the Metropolis Initiative envisions a future where researchers and cities collaborate to actively develop, use, and integrate innovations and technologies to chart intelligent pathways towards a set of desired outcomes.
