SESSION(S): Aerotropolis:  The Way We’ll Live Next

Join presenter Greg Lindsay, co-author of Aerotropolis, The Way We’ll Live Next, as he provides a fascinating look at how future urban planning could change the way CCIMs conduct business. The concept of the aerotropolis – a giant airport surrounded by a planned city, shipping facility, and business hub - is now reshaping life in Seoul and Amsterdam, in China and India, in Dallas and Washington, D.C. Mr. Lindsay will discuss how the impact of air travel and technology, combined with a global economy, will play a role in future urban planning in an interconnected world.
