In this episode, we go behind the scenes of what it really takes to rebuild cities from the ground up: legally, financially, and technologically.Expect big ideas: free transport through real estate-backed revenue, why most smart city pitches fail, and the invisible infrastructure we never talk about data centers, supply chains, and rare earth materials.Think smart cities are still futuristic? Think again. They’re being built right now and this episode shows how.
