Global Strategist Parag Khanna to Keynote Urbanity ’18

3bc8a2e2-2c4a-4120-b0e9-ffbc19167d7e

The Urban Developer is thrilled to host global strategist Parag Khanna as a keynote speaker at Urbanity ’18.

Khanna's keynote, Connectivity is Urban Destiny: A New Lens on Cities, Infrastructure and Real Estate , will explore the impact of global integration and connectivity on human behaviour, supply chains and the flow of people into cities.


Recognised as one of the ‘75 Most Influential People of the 21st Century’, Parag's insights are critical at a time of rapid urbanisation, population growth, infrastructure and real estate investment across the globe.

This is a keynote not to be missed!


Parag is the managing partner of FutureMap, a data and scenario-based strategic advisory firm. Khanna is also a best selling author, an adviser to the US National Intelligence Council’s Global Trends 2030 program and a CNN Global Contributor.

He spoke at TED in 2016, TED Global 2009 and was a guest host of TED Global 2012. His TED talks have been viewed more than two million times.

Khanna’s keynote will take place on Tuesday, September 18 on the opening morning of Urbanity. Learn more about Urbanity here.
