Cities Rewired

Gibson Chu · 2026
Cities Rewired features conversations with the people shaping the future of cities. From AI and civic technology to transportation, housing, climate, and public policy, each episode explores how ambitious ideas become lasting public systems.

Every city faces increasingly complex challenges, yet the solutions rarely come from a single discipline. Cities Rewired brings together product managers, founders, planners, architects, public officials, researchers, investors, and designers to explore how technology, policy, and design come together to shape the places we live.

Rather than focusing on announcements or headlines, each conversation looks behind the scenes — examining the decisions, tradeoffs, partnerships, and lessons that turn ideas into products, pilots into public infrastructure, and visions into lasting change.
