ABOUT WORLD CITIES SUMMIT

Guangzhou Municipal Government,

Chairman of the Board,
Vantone Holdings Co. Ltd and
Chairman, World Future Foundation
I attended the Mayors Forum and
learned a lot from other mayors and city
managers who talked about how their
cities developed and challenges they
faced… That’s excellent for learning and
I hope we can benefit from it by applying
what we have learnt for the future.
“
HIS EXCELLENCY DR. ALI
YOUSIF ABDULNABI AL-SHUKRI
Minister of Planning,
Iraq
“
World Cities Summit is definitely very
useful to network with many high-level city
representatives and learn about each city’s
experiences and initiatives. Such forums and
conferences are very beneficial in exchanging
excellent solutions to problems faced in city
planning.
“
What we can learn from Singapore
is its very relevant industrialization
experiences… Singapore was able to
upgrade and transform itself from a
manufacturing industry to a knowledge
industry, including biotechnology and
medical services, which can be exported
to the whole world.
JEREMY BENTHAM
Vice President,
Global Business Environment, Shell
“
Having a forum where people come together
from the different sectors that is seen to be
independent and integrated is a very positive
contribution to actually dealing with issues…
Singapore is seen as a model for integrated
city development and it has become an urban
powerhouse.

Over 90% of urban growth
occurs in the developing
world, adding some 70 million
new urban residents annually.
The World Bank projects
that cities in emerging
economies will double to 4
billion people between 2000
and 2030. The key to resilient
and sustainable development
lies in cities finding the right
policies and investments.
How can governments, businesses and citizens share
insights and solutions to make our cities more liveable
and sustainable?
The World Cities Summit is the exclusive and premier
platform for government leaders and industry experts to
address liveable and sustainable city challenges, share
integrated urban solutions and forge new partnerships.
Under the theme Liveable and Sustainable Cities: Common
Challenges, Shared Solutions, the 4th edition of the biennial
World Cities Summit will be held in Singapore from 1 to 4
June 2014, in conjunction with the Singapore International
Water Week and CleanEnviro Summit Singapore at the
