Bloomberg CityLab 2024

The eleventh Bloomberg CityLab, the preeminent global cities summit organized by Bloomberg Philanthropies in partnership with the Aspen Institute, will convene more than 500 mayors and leading policymakers, innovators, and creatives in Mexico City, Mexico October 14 to October 16, 2024.

In 2024, half the world’s population will be living in places holding national, legislative, and local elections. Most of those people live in cities—where the consequences of these elections will play out. As they do, mayors across the globe are drawing inspiration from the urban policies that catapulted Mexico City’s former mayor to the presidency. Against this backdrop, Bloomberg CityLab 2024 will explore the urban advancements CDMX and other municipalities throughout Mexico and Latin America have made for their residents and delve into the solutions shaped by city halls around the world that are poised to reshape nations.

Bloomberg CityLab was founded on the principle that important innovation is happening at the local level and that global impact can be achieved when cities share solutions. For over a decade, CityLab summits have convened the most influential mayors and voices from hundreds of cities worldwide. Bloomberg CityLab’s presence in Mexico City marks a milestone in the longstanding partnership between Bloomberg Philanthropies and the municipality.
