SusHi Tech Tokyo 2024: experience ‘Tokyo 2050’ todaySponsored by The SusHi Tech Tokyo 2024 Showcase Program Executive Committee
Workshop & Roundtable Discussions - in association with National League of Cities
The National League of Cities (NLC) is partnering with SmartCitiesWorld to highlight and showcase the most innovative cities not just in the US, but across the world, and share best practices when it comes to solving urban challenges. The partnership is based on the organizations’ common values and focus to support cities and local governments in the work they do to improve the places and people they serve.
A series of “challenge workshops” has been launched featuring cities from the NLC membership and SmartCitiesWorld community. These will be designed as two-way learning experiences and will bring together cities that share similar challenges but may have found different ways to tackle them in areas such as infrastructure, housing, equity and climate change. Following these extensive discussions of the challenges and solutions, a structured set of actionable insights will be developed for each one and shared.
The workshops will also bring together expert speakers and partners to offer possible solutions or a different perspective to help cities make further progress. A series of practical how-to webinars will also be co-hosted by the two organisations to exchange knowledge and disseminate information to a wider audience.
The first series of workshops look at the role of mobility:
Workshop Roundtable Discussion (22 June 2023): How to create smarter and more inclusive mobility offerings
Urban mobility services and its underlying infrastructure are perhaps the two most significant elements that stand to re-shape our cities in the coming years. With cities battling to reduce emissions in the fight against climate change, new mobility services that are shared, smart and sustainable are going to be critical as authorities look to encourage a shift in mobility behaviours among the public.
In the first of a series of in-person and virtual workshops being hosted by SmartCitiesWorld and the National League of Cities, we are exploring these themes alongside the UK MOVE conference in London, with senior transportation and city practitioners uncovering the practical steps that local and transport authorities can take to make their mobility services more appealing, accessible and inclusive, the role of technology in this mission, and how to encourage modal shift among citizens.

Workshop & Roundtable Discussion (17 July 2023): EVs to urban redevelopment – how to deliver sustainable mobility services
The urban mobility space and its bid for decarbonisation is filled with complex and critical decisions that need to be made, encompassing everything from how we re-develop existing infrastructure like roads and pavements, to how we deploy new technology that will enable a sustainable, long-term transition to electric vehicles.
In this workshop hosted by SmartCitiesWorld and the National League of Cities (NLC), we take an in-depth look at some of the challenges being encountered by transport agencies and local authorities in establishing mobility services that are environmentally-friendly, and support cities’ objectives to improve air quality, decarbonise, and reduce congestion.
