CityAge is a "global platform where leaders meet to build the future of our urban planet." Tuesday's event is part of a new digital series that brings together leaders in mid-sized cities to share the steps they're taking to build their burgeoning economies.
Sioux Falls Mayor Paul TenHaken will open Tuesday's event before presentations and panel discussions begin featuring leaders from cities such as Boise, Idaho; Reno, Nevada; Erie, Pennsylvania; and Sacramento, California.
Discussions are expected to explore a variety of topics, including:
Vernon Brown, SDN's Vice President of Marketing and Community Relations, said co-sponsoring the upcoming event was a no-brainer for the company.
"We're proud of the city Sioux Falls has become and, at SDN, we're proud to be part of the community. Showcasing the many things going well in Sioux Falls is good for the entire business community."
The sponsorship will include an additional on-line presentation and a future in-person event for Sioux Falls.
More than 15,000 leaders from "business, government, research, design and civil society" have participated in CityAge's digital and live events since 2012, including Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the United Kingdom; U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev); and Quentin Messer, president of the New Orleans Business Alliance.
