Innovative Cities

In the 21st century, the concept of a “smart city” is more than just a buzzword or an ideology, it’s a necessity. With the increasing and unpredictable demands of urbanization, forward thinking individuals from the public and private sectors are turning to emerging technology to tackle the many implications of a growing urban sprawl. With increased internet connectivity and radical innovations, smart cities aim to conquer urban challenges, from transportation to security, in an attempt to make city life as effortless and efficient as possible. In Innovative Cities, CNN explores the initiatives and the innovations that are revolutionizing the cities of the world from cloud computing and blockchain solutions to biometrics and artificial intelligence.

Business Traveller – Wellbeing and Happiness on the Road

Business leisure – adding a few days onto a business trip to see the sights – might some years ago have been seen as unethical or questionable, but now it’s the norm. Business travellers seek it, and employers are becoming more savvy to it. “Bleisure”, wellness, happiness on the road: how has the approach to business travel changed, how is tech making it easier, and what does it really take to outweigh the stress of life on the road? Quest tasks Isa Soares with finding out, delving into the science, the psychology and the innovations and road testing the tips and theories on an actual news shoot/business trip to the so called “happy capital”, Copenhagen.

Quest’s World of Wonder – Berlin

Berlin is the king of diversity: a city of contrasts where subcultures thrive. Where the night-time economy dominates the daytime. Where the shadow of the past mingles with a young and creative population. Where the gritty walls of street art galleries look down on the glamorous performances of burlesque dancers. Where east and west are now united, and yet still stand apart. “Poor but sexy” is the phrase which became synonymous with this city, voted the best place for Millennials, who champion its low rents, and nod along to its techno soundtrack. Join Richard Quest as he makes his way through the German capital, learning from young and old about what makes this city such a special destination. (more…)
