What Does The City Of The Future Look Like?

Today on the Future in Five, I’m joined by a very special guest, Miguel Gamiño. Miguel is CIO of the city and county of San Francisco. He is giving us his take on the city of the future… and who better to hear from than the CIO of the coolest city in the world?! We discuss how the city of the future will be hyperconnected, with wireless internet access everywhere you go. Which leads to another quality of the city of the future – digital savviness. Cities must begin to meet the customer in the modern time. We now use apps for rides, hotels, banking, and everything in between. So why doesn’t government swap out the forms that it is so well known for with apps? The city of the future will also be data driven to enable services to be more responsive, effective, and efficient.
