SEATTLE, WA USA – Having completed his PhD at age 24 and travelling to more than 100 countries worldwide, renowned philosopher and expert on global cities, Dr. Richard G. Smith, has highly extensive international knowledge and experience researching how the world’s cities are connected together through the networks that constitute globalization.
His research on the world’s cities has been extensively covered in the world’s print media, and is among the most highly-cited and reprinted in the world. Dr. Smith has presented his research at more than 50 international conferences, universities and public events, including the main TEDx event held in London in June 2017; and this January he will be speaking at the Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate 12th Annual Luxury Real Estate International Symposium, held January 16th-18th, 2018 at the St. James' Court, A Taj Hotel in London.
Dr. Smith’s presentation will focus on the exponential growth our world has seen of global cities in the 21st century, which cities are global leaders in the world today, and which will become global centers of the future. He will identify the networks that make globalization shape both existing global cities and enable new cities to either have a more global role as centres of economic and political power, or an economic specialization within the overall world city network. This talk will pull together the latest thinking, scholarship and reporting on the world’s cities to both identify the leading, established and emerging global cities across the world, and discuss the extent to which that knowledge about global cities explains and predicts the global market in prime luxury residential real estate.
