Helping cities and companies unlock innovation. 

CollectiveIQ

10 years ago, Guillermo Mazier became increasingly obsessed with answering 3 questions:

How do people shape cities? 

How can cities and people come together to solve some of the world’s most wicked problems? 

What are the underlying conditions that can elevate cities and the people that live in them?

After extensive original research with over 250 cities from around the world and years of leading city, state a country governments to find new better solutions to support social and economic development challenges, Mazier has found the answers. It turns out that 4 conditions are needed to transform a community and the people that live there into a force for global change. In developing these conditions cities, companies and the people that live there can be the spark that the world will need to respond to disruption. Together.

Using the Community Innovation Index (CollectiveIQ) Mazier was able to provide a self-assessment for communities around the world based on (70+) variables across 4 conditions which are: Collaboration, Creativity, Community Mindset (Growth Mindset), and Talent Cultivation. These variables and conditions are what Cities of the future will need to help grow and thrive.
