What Will Make Cities Smarter?

Recorded at last week's CNG2019 event in Denver, Light Reading's Alan Breznick interviews Mari Silbey, the director of communications for US Ignite. Silbey, a former Light Reading editor, is also director of the US Ignite Forum, a program that brings local government officials and their partners together to share smart city challenges, strategies and best practices. Breznick quizzes Silbey on what makes a city smarter, what opportunities there are for network operators in this effort and what examples we can look at to find out how city governments and service providers have gone from squabbling about TV franchise rights to building cities of the future. Before that discussion, Light Reading's Phil Harvey kicks off the podcast with a quick rant about why he doesn't live in a smart city (and neither do you).
