Thank you to everyone who came together to make the 2013 event a phenomenal success! From Calgary to Calcutta, we had record numbers of people walking and talking together in 100+ participating cities about what makes a city really work. What an incredible idea. We hope that this year you saw your own city in a new way, made some new friends and were inspired to collaborate with the change-makers in your neck of the woods.
