Episode description

What does the term Cities As A Service entail? Using data to bring better and more flexible services that can be employed by the citizens? What are the moral and legal aspects to consider regarding the expansion of human life across space, for example by creating a commercial space market, mining asteroids or building bases on different planets? Let's explore the groundbreaking ways in which innovation can revolutionize how we view space, cities, and citizens.
