Jon Kingsbury gave a presentation at a Smart City conference on the role of creativity and creative industries in Smart Cities. He discussed how creative industries can help cities by using data to experimentally test new ideas and gather feedback to build creative capacity. He argued the value of thinking about the "Creative Economy" more broadly than just specific industries. Kingsbury took questions on how creative industries can most powerfully contribute to networked cities and how cities can develop their creative abilities.
