    Why Attend?

    Full Overview

    Johannesburg, positioned as a world-class African city is home to nearly four and half million people. As urbanisation rates rise rapidly, policymakers are under pressure to improve infrastructure and public services.

    Despite efforts, there is still much work to be done to ensure Johannesburg caters to the needs of its residents. Beyond the demand for services, residents are presented with high rates of unemployment, crime traffic congestion and a public transport system which is still far from seamless. To function like other advanced cities in the world, Johannesburg must be spatially integrated, inclusive, liveable, and sustainable. Efforts will need to focus on improving access to basic services such as power, water, sanitation, housing, roads, internet and social amenities.

    What is being done to lessen the strain of population growth and migration? How is technology being used to provide a better, faster and more frequent service delivery? What plans are in place to encourage innovation in the power sector?

    This high-level morning briefing will bring together policy-makers, innovators and investors for an exclusive gathering and discussion on how best to solve Johannesburg’s toughest urban challenges. Organised by the Financial Times, in partnership with Siemens, the discussion will focus on how senior stakeholders can work together to implement a robust, safe and secure smart city strategy.
