Greg becomes a two-time Jeopardy! Winner and the only human to overcome IBM’s Watson unbeaten. Greg Lindsay’s most recent speech topic is COVID-19 Digital Keynote. Planetary Immunization: Life After COVID-19

Greg has been speaking about “The Post-Pandemic City” by asking such questions as:

How will we immunize our cities, companies, homes, and families against the other pandemic while the world waits for a vaccine?

How will flexible firms, for example, reconcile the mental and physical health of their employee with emerging remote/office work hybrids?

Will social distancing eliminate public transit and ridesharing in favor of solo driving, or will cities leave streets over to bikes, scooters, and pedestrians?

How will deliveries, “dark kitchen,” and automation threaten to flip the retail and restaurant industries on their heads, jeopardizing main streets, mom-and-pop shops, and property investment as we know it?

And where would millennials, now the consumers of a second economic downturn, want to raise their offspring, “Generation C”?

Greg Lindsay, looking to draw on his investigation and skill work for New Cities, an Atlantic Council, MIT’s Upcoming Urban Social organizations Research facility, the Bloomberg Philanthropies, and lots of latest interviews, provides a comprehensive analysis of how the pandemic and subsequent economic collapse will change the path of our lives for decades.
