America’s towns and cities purchase more than a trillion dollars in infrastructure, goods, and services annually. That’s why every city — who will spend these public dollars — needs to have an effective, open, and fast procurement system to make sure every dollar they spend is maximized and tracked. Luckily there are city leaders across America who have taken on this important challenge by embracing new technology, to build cutting-edge procurement systems for their cities and citizens. CityAge – in collaboration with UrbanLeap – brought together those leaders who are reinventing procurement in America on November 16th. We discussed how they’re building cities that are more liveable, green, accessible, and equitable, all while powering the private sector to innovate.
