If you do the math,all you really need is a half day off on Friday. Here’s how we made it work. Take a
flight out of SFO on Friday afternoon at 1:30pm. Land in Taipei at 6:30pm, Saturday night. Leave
Taipei Monday morning at 11:00am and land back into SFO at 7:30am. AND you’ll still make it back in
time for you 9am conference call at work.

Idea Exchange Recommendations
•As cities bring people together to live, work and play, they amplify their ability to create wealth and ideas.
•But scale and density also bring acute challenges: how to move around people and things; how to provide energy; how to keep people safe.
•Smart cities offer sensors, ‘big data’ and advanced computing as answers to these challenges
•The successful smart cities of the future will combine the best aspects of technology infrastructure while making the most of the growing potential of 'collaborative technologies', technologies that enable greater collaboration between urban communities and between citizens and city governments.
•How will this work in practice? Drawing on examples from all around the world we investigate four emerging methods which are helping city governments engage and enable citizens: the collaborative economy, crowdsourcing data, collective intelligence and crowdfunding.
Policy recommendations
•Set up a civic innovation lab to drive innovation in collaborative technologies.
•Use open data and open platforms to mobilise collective knowledge.
•Take human behaviour as seriously as technology.
•Invest in smart people, not just smart technology.
•Spread the potential of collaborative technologies to all parts of society.
