How Do You Get to Columbus?

In New York locals love to tell a joke that reflects the challenge and excellence required to reach the top in this world capital. It goes like this:

A shy young tourist approaches a lifetime New Yorker, "Excuse me, how do I get to Carnegie Hall?"
The New Yorker grins and replies, "Practice, kid! Practice!"
 
The ICF's Top7 are on their way to "Carnegie Hall." In this case it is Columbus, Ohio, host of the Intelligent Community of the Year announcement and conference. The Top7 have achieved at incredibly high levels of performance in tech, economic development and each wear their pride and their souls on their sleeve. 
 
In the first of two interviews, ICF co-founder Lou Zacharilla interviews Hilliard, Ohio (USA) and Kingston, Ontario (Canada). They share insights on how they use their digital infrastructure to grow their innovation sectors and why AI in municipal government is an asset….and more!

Guest include:
