The 2010 Richard J. Daley Global Cities Forum assembled the leaders of more than 100 cities and local governments, along with prominent business, civic, academic and foundation leaders for discussions on key urban issues. The 2010 Forum addressed the theme, New Partnerships for a New Economy: Driving Innovation in Cities, and fostered a dialogue on the role of public-private partnerships as a key tool to help cities continue to deliver innovative programs and services in these challenging economic times. As we all work toward global economic recovery, now more than ever, it is critical for government, private industry and foundations to work together in new ways to ensure the strength and vitality of our cities.
