Citizen Centric

Ep 01 - An introduction to the Citizen Centric Podcast

Episode Summary

In this first episode we explain the focus of the podcast. Our core message is: "if we solve the citizen’s problems first and if we do this with intuitive and easy to use tools then all of the data to make city more efficient and sustainable will be available by default". Another way to phrase this is: how can concepts such as sharing, the platform economy, smart city, the future of work, circular economy and a greater focus on health and wellbeing combine to improve the quality of life in our cities? The bulk of this episode is a section of Ken Dooley's interview with Aarni Heiskanen from a recent episode of the AEC podcast where he discusses his aim over the coming episodes.
