LED BY: Clarence Wardell, Director, What Works Cities Jay Nath, Co-Executive Director, STIR Mauricio Garcia, Deputy Director, Cities of Service DESCRIPTION: Over the past decade, the focus on building innovation capacity at the local level of government has led to a wealth of new approaches, resources, and tools to address some of our most critical challenges as a nation.

This panel will explore promising approaches for scaling innovations across cities, and tackle the challenges that arise in moving from awareness to implementation.
