New York based global Think Tank, the Intelligent Community Forum’s (ICF) Chairman and Co-founder John G. Jung offers advice to community leaders at all levels on how cities and regions can build economic prosperity while meeting social challenges in an age of fast-paced technological disruption. Brain Gain offers insights from more than a decade of research into the most intelligent communities on the planet. These cities have found ways to prosper from the relentless rise of Information Technology and connectivity that in other places is destroying jobs and making whole industries obsolete at an unprecedented rate.
