The innovation, business, community and cultural leaders of Chattanooga provided access into the cities historical places and comprehensive information on how it has reinvented itself as an innovation hub and cultural drawcard.
Reactivate co-directors Matthew Gollan and Andrew Coward were joined by Meriton Head of Architecture Neil Warner O’Connell and Neighbourlytics Co-founder Lucinda Hartley to discuss the diversification of Sydney’s night-time economy and the opportunities that lay head for the cities public spaces.
