The R&D Lab for the built world.
We believe in building cities that work for everyone, by putting innovation and knowledge in the hands of the people who actually live there.
Impact Pillars
Broadening access to advanced tools.
We work to ensure powerful tools—like spatial data, modeling, and design intelligence—are accessible to the people who understand cities best: the ones living in them.
By lowering the barrier to these capabilities, we empower communities and entrepreneurs to design solutions that are as relevant as they are ready.
AI & emerging technologies.
We harness the power of AI and frontier tech to tackle the urgent challenges facing our cities.
By embedding these capacities into everyday practice, we equip everyone shaping the built environment—from policymakers to community builders—with the ability to anticipate, model, and respond to urban conditions faster, and more equitably.
Shaping the urban innovation market.
We create the conditions for a more dynamic, demand-driven ecosystem, where public needs meet private ingenuity.
By connecting governments, startups, investors, and communities, we accelerate the adoption of scalable innovations that reshape how cities are financed, governed, and experienced.
Invest in a better urban operating system.
A resilient city isn’t just well built. It’s built to adapt, before it’s forced to.
We build the capacity for cities to evolve at scale–putting power back where it belongs: in the hands of the people who live there.
After all, the future is a shared project.
