Cities are drivers for global economic growth and innovation. At the same time, they are challenged by growing populations and the speed at which new technologies emerge. The most successful cities of the future will harness the collective super-power of private, public and people collaboration.




At World Cities Summit, taking place in Singapore next week, Mastercard will showcase how we are partnering with cities across the globe to open up more possibilities for more people. By applying partnerships, technologies and insights, everyday urban life can become more intuitive and more inclusive.
