Sign up for our awesome New York Tech Events weekly email newsletter.     EVENT DETAILS Join us on October 23, 2018 for a half-day event on Data in Smarter Cities: Who Owns It? Who Runs It? Who Benefits? Effective capture & imaginative use of data is wholly necessary for cities to become smarter. But underneath that statement of the obvious lurks a number of knotty challenges, as well as opportunities for cities to take on wholly different approaches & even to find new sources of revenue. Our half-day program is centered on these issues & will look to unlock a variety of viewpoints on areas such as privacy, security, ownership, & business models (for both cities & the suppliers of solutions), as we look to provide a lay of the land on the challenges & the opportunities that exist at the intersection of data & cities. Our attendance will be capped at 100 seats, so please register as soon as possible in order to participate.
