Imagining future communities: The challenge for innovation

MIT Media Lab’s City Science group explores how innovation can drive the creation of more adaptive, responsive, and sustainable urban ecosystems. This will require not only harnessing cutting-edge technologies—such as AI-driven urban modeling, agent-based simulations, and decentralized energy systems—but also rethinking traditional paradigms of mobility, governance, and public space to ensure inclusivity and resilience. Research scientist Luis Alonso will discuss challenges and opportunities for innovation in urban development, drawing from ongoing research and projects that aim to redefine the way we live, work, and interact in the cities of tomorrow.
