Play the ‘Competitive Cities’ game: See whether you’re a guru of urban competitiveness
January 12, 2016 Editor 0
To start the new year, I’ve designed a 10-question game to recap some of the major findings of our flagship report, “Competitive Cities for Jobs and Growth: What, Who and How.”
The report, which was launched at at a World Bank conference in Washington on December 10, 2015, has been gaining wide recognition in the news media. Positive coverage has included analyses in Citylab (edited by urbanologist Richard Florida) and in Citiscope (edited by urbanologist Neal Peirce), as well as an essay in The Huffington Post by Marcelo Giugale, senior economic advisor in the World Bank Group’s practice group on Equitable Growth, Finance and Institutions (EFI).
This short 3-minute game features many of the central themes of the Competitive Cities initiative. Please click on this link – http://sgiz.mobi/s3/The-Competitive-Cities-Game – to start the game.
