In this last edition of InfraVision’s podcast series on the future of cities and their infrastructure, host Laurie Mahon (Former Vice Chair at CIBC Capital Markets), explore ‘New Models for Urban Governance,’ with two guests who bring policy insight and academic depth to this conversation: Reuven Carlyle (Former Washington State Senator) and Cecilia Wong (Professor of Spatial Planning at the University of Manchester).
