We recently published the 2025 edition of our Global Cities Index, ranking the 1,000 largest cities in the world on a range of economic, human capital, quality of life, environment, and governance metrics. In this webinar, our panel of experts will outline the key results from this year’s update and will discuss major trends impacting cities around the world—from AI to trade wars to climate change.
This webinar is being held on our new platform, ON24. If you do not receive your confirmation email, please check your junk and spam folders.
