Nicki Hutley is a Partner at Deloitte Access Economics, where she leads the Urban Advisory practice.

Nikki’s worked for three decades in the field of urban economics addressing issues such as affordable housing, social & economic infrastructure investment, urban renewal, precinct planning, climate mitigation & social policies. 

Who better to help us tackle the question of whether Australia’s cities are full? We debate a wide range of topics, including:

• Will technology profoundly change the way we work & will it help regional Australia to thrive?

• Australian cities are among the least dense in the world so can we afford to go up?

• What type of housing do we actually need to fill the ‘missing middle’?

• How can population growth benefit the economy?

• Busting 3 big myths: will robots take our jobs, is the workforce becoming too casualised & is remote working the answer?

• How can density be done well & why is it necessary?

• Can technology help us better manage climate risks?

Have a listen & please let us know your thoughts.
