Autodesk Supports City 2.0 for 2012 TED Conference
Autodesk is supporting City 2.0 through content development and by providing free software and other resources on thecity2.org website, all of which will help citizens more easily visualize and simulate the environmental transformation of their cities. Autodesk will also create a new exhibit for the Autodesk Gallery at One Market in San Francisco, introducing visitors to technology that can help realize the vision of City 2.0.
The TED Prize is traditionally awarded to an individual, but for the first time in seven years, the winner of the prize is an idea. The City 2.0 was selected because cities promote innovation, education, culture and economic opportunity. Living sustainably is also a critical component of the City 2.0. The wish for the TED Prize was unveiled on February 29, 2012, at the TED Conference in Long Beach, California.
