I recently applied to debate at the Reindustrialize Summit in Detroit for June 25-26 on the topic of whether to improve existing cities or build new ones. While I patiently compressed the bulk of our thesis build_cities into a 30-second submission arguing for the improvement of existing cities, I couldn't help but feel the rush of supporting arguments bleed out the edge of my time box. So here is an expansion of these arguments:
Learn about the origin story of build_r&d and more covered in the latest episode of The Engine Media
The new episode of The Engine is up! This week, we talk about startup cities. At one point in our lives, we all face the question - where should I live? And it’s a complicated one. Conventional wisdom tells us that you want to be where the best are at what you aspire to be. If you’re in entertainment, you come to LA. If you’re in business and finance, it’s New York. If you’re building in tech, you come to San Francisco. Or at least it used to be so. Things have been changing for a long time, but they have really picked up momentum since the pandemic, when so many teams became remote. Now, you could technically live in a remote ski resort or on an island in the Caribbean as you’re building your future unicorn startup and turning your sleepy village into a new startup city. But how realistic is it? And what goes into that? This week on The Engine, my guests are Nick Smoot and Christopher Pennino. Both have a ton of experience in creating both startup communities and developing build environments optimized for startups. Nick is an entrepreneur, investor, real estate developer, and ecosystem builder who has been executing the community-first, real-estate second thesis for the last decade. His work in startup ecosystems has been recognized by Google, Brookings, Milken Institute, and Bloomberg. He has spent time in over 200 cities in the last decade, working with government, education, industry, and community members. He is also the author of the book Better - How to Build Creative Communities that Transform The World. Chris is an architectural scholar, designer, and consultant. His personal research focuses on Special Economic Zones, and how technology developments impact our built environments. He serves as the Head of Architecture and Urbanism at Vid Sertsya Budova, a startup city that's being built outside of Kyiv for internally displaced people. He is also the Chief of Research and Development at build_cities. Nick explains the concept of transforming existing cities rather than building new ones from scratch, "I personally believe a startup city can be quite simply a city who's been in an industrial revolution malaise that finally decides they want to put both feet on the ground again and get out of bed and quit doomscrolling about their past." Chris defines a startup ecosystem even broader as “any kind of pushback against perceived austerity or kind of staleness in one's perception of the built environment.” If you find yourself in one of these doom-scrolling cities stuck in their industrial malaise, you may be in just a perfect place to get a startup ecosystem going.

In a content-rich world, how do we produce new and unexpected, knowledge-based outcomes? How can we champion the digital while still providing research-driven precision? Introducing: build_journal - the official quarterly review of build_r&d, publishing thematic, interdisciplinary research from within the build_cities network. build_journal is a beacon at the intersection of contemporary disciplines. Through a synthesis of collaborative actors, each edition embodies a commitment to pushing the boundaries of conventional research methodologies, and driving innovation with real-world applications. Central to the mission is an alignment with the foundational pillars of Ecosystems, Economies, Built Environments, and Cyber-Physical realms. This thematic framework allows for a nuanced understanding of technology, culture, and language in the digital age. Each edition of the journal will be aimed specifically towards a subsection of one of the above research pillars, as determined by the build_ community. Contributors from the network will then have an opportunity to present their work for consideration.

First humanity built in atoms, then we layered on bits to scale. In the Fourth Industrial Revolution, we'll see a convergence of these two that will give rise to innovation that outpaces science fiction itself.?This emerging world requires a new blend of interdisciplinary thought, research, and procedures to navigate the questions of our era. Introducing build_r&d: A platform within build_cities network, pioneering interdisciplinary research at the convergence of contemporary disciplines. The bedrock of build_r&d is anchored in four foundational pillars that define the intersection of contemporary digital/irl landscapes: Ecosystems Economies Built Environments Cyber-Physical This ground-up approach empowers the build_cities community to drive adaptive research with tangible, real-world applications. At the heart of build_r&d lies the belief that the network is the embodiment of knowledge. Members contribute intellectual property, forming a decentralized knowledge archive that thrives on continuous learning and innovation. Discovery in the digital age sees new methods align with innovative creation. build_r&d bridges the gap between groundbreaking research and full-scale deployment, bringing the IP of the collective to life. Join the conversation and contribute to a first of its kind networked think tank, building the future of IP: Full Announcement: https://lnkd.in/gZ-9B_E5 build_r&d Website: https://lnkd.in/gRCKTFAA Weekly Sync: https://lu.ma/n1olg5ev Discord Link: https://lnkd.in/gt4UZr8v #smartcities #urbanism #urbandesign #urbanplanning #architecture #thinktank #web3 #communitybuilding #daos #futureofwork #economicdevelopment
