Can Cities innovate ?
Can a mayor like Bloomberg (NY) or Livingstone (London) enable innovation by their policies ?
Maybe we know that when a critical mass of infrastructure is put in place exciting things are can happen. eg Silicon Valley
But can Cities with fast transport links (eg Crossrail) and great leisure facilities (Olympic park), or new car policies (Congestion charge) create an environment which moves cities to the next level.
I think we are moving to new levels of cities where the ability of a city to satisfactorily enable up to 10m people to efficiently live together will enable it to take a lead over it's competitors.
As someone who struggles around London every day I look forward to better links and the benefits of living in a 21st century city.
