Episode description
Are you interested in how to move and look forward to a better future after negative experiences? What do you think about resilience? How can we become more antifragile and creative for better futures?
Interview with Michael Healy, the Smart Cities Programme Manager at Christchurch City Council. We talk about his vision for the future of cities, smart city as the R&D department, the use cases for AI, conflux of natural effects, and many more.
Michael Healy’s interest in the use of technology and innovation to make improvements for business and the community has underpinned his work across both public and private sectors. He is focused on finding solutions and developing new ideas in partnership with the community that make a real impact in the city of Christchurch, its region, Canterbury and around the country of New Zealand. Christchurch is a leader in New Zealand innovation and, through the Christchurch City Council’s Smart Christchurch Programme, Michael is excited to play a part in making Christchurch a better place to be.
