The question
How can a city bring institutions and businesses together to support jobs, recovery, and long-term economic development?
My contribution
I directed a portfolio of more than ten public-private initiatives, coordinating project teams and working with public officials and company executives. My work included launching an urban innovation sandbox for startups working on AI, robotics, and energy.
The work
This work included tuTECHÔ Hogar, Sandbox Madrid, Madrid’s tourism and destination development, and Madrid Solar, bringing public and private organizations together around practical city projects.
Results
A publicly documented collaboration brought Madrid Futuro, the Technical University of Madrid, and Caser together on urban planning for older people.
