Federico Casalegno, director of our Mobile Experience Lab, is headed to Moscow for three events December 4th and 5th. If you’re local, go! If you’re not, we’re keeping an eye out for live feeds and recordings to share. (We’ll share them here and on Twitter at @cms_mit).

  • Dec 4, 10 PM, “Designing Connections”, a one-hour lecture with Q&A, at the Polytechnical Museum in Moscow.
  • Dec 5, 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM “Smart, Sustainable, Connected Cities” lecture and Q&A, at the Moscow Urban Forum, Manezh Hall in Moscow

And as MEL colleague Nate Howe tells us, “As if that wasn’t enough, as part of the Urban Forum, he will also take part in a session on customer-focused transport on the 4th from 2-3:30, and an event on the development of new types of transport and road networks at the Dandy Cafe in Moscow from 6-8 on the 3rd.”
