Sidewalk Labs (urban city by google)

Sidewalk Labs is a new type of company that works with cities to build products addressing big urban problems.They’re building a platform and a set of urban applications to accelerate innovation in cities around the world.
They believe digital technologies have the potential to solve today’s pressing urban problems in ways that respect privacy—serving as a bridge to cities of the future.
Often technology solutions applied to cities have failed to solve real-world problems, and policy solutions have failed to capitalize on the full potential of technology. To address this, Sidewalk Labs is building an integrated platform for urban innovation spanning technology, data, policy best practices, relationships, and capital.
