Achieving global impact by sharing local solutions.

Bloomberg CityLab, the preeminent global cities summit organized by Bloomberg Philanthropies in partnership with the Aspen Institute, brings together global mayors alongside prominent city innovators, business leaders, urban experts, artists, and activists to discuss and discover replicable solutions to pressing issues – from leading their communities through pandemic recovery to welcoming refugees from global conflicts to combatting climate change.
