CityAge Los Angeles:

Shaping the Next Los Angeles

in-person summit
may 25, 2023
The california Club | 8:30 am - 1:30 pm (PT)

showing America - and the world - how to build the future

The United States is carrying out an historic reinvestment in its infrastructure and cities.

As host to both the 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Olympic Games, the 2029 version of Los Angeles can show America - and the world - how to build that future.

But first, it has to do it.

CityAge is proud to return to Los Angeles on May 25 to highlight how LA and its region can:

Dramatically increase housing supply and tackle homelessness, while we also decarbonize the built environment

Re-invent transit and mobility through smart data-sharing and new technologies

The new public-private partnership, and how it can deliver tech-enabled infrastructure

Use design, technology and renewable energy systems to decarbonize urban operations

Add new urban innovations like electric urban aviation to its infrastructure

Create both digital and physical connectivity

Weave resiliency into new and rebuilt infrastructure

We invite you to join us May 25 for our in-person CityAge Los Angeles.

You’ll meet the people forging the partnerships and investments that can inform the future of other American towns and cities, and set an example for the world.

Rick Cole

Chief Deputy Controller,
City of Los Angeles

Hilary Norton

Commissioner and Chairwoman Emeritus, California Transportation Commission
