Jonathan Lane: Improving NYC through Innovative Business & Government Collaborations
Jonathan: Urbantech NYC is a set of programs that helps create whole new industries in New York City, specifically those that use technology to make systems like transportation, buildings, food, and energy better. I work with private businesses to get them to pay more attention to the environmental and social needs that the government cares about. I also work with the government (“public sector”) to build its “innovation muscle”, and learn how to improve the way it does what it wants to do for all New Yorkers.
