In this episode, Todd Daubert dives into the concept of "private smart cities" and how they’re transforming urban spaces through technology. Unlike traditional smart cities, which rely on multi-departmental coordination, private smart cities benefit from centralized decision-making, allowing a single network to support everything from security to public transit. This streamlined approach cuts costs, boosts efficiency, and enhances access to services like Wi-Fi, education, and healthcare. Todd discusses how these cities could set new standards for innovation and social equity, showcasing the potential for tech-driven solutions to address urban challenges in powerful ways.
