What Characteristics Would Provide the Best Utilization for a City Hub?

Assumption: There is a Need for a City Hub for Solving Complex Problems and For Community Engagement

Invitees: Leaders from Business, the City, Education and the Community who believe in this need

Why We Need It:

Complexity of multi-disciplinary problems needing comprehensive solutions
Problems addressed in silos can cause problems in other areas
Needs for complex data analysis and visualization are skyrocketing
Lots of City Initiatives and Successes without Visibility and Recognition in the Community
No place to casually convene for community conversations about solutions
