  • About Us

    MetroLab Network is an international collaborative of 28 cities, 6 counties, and 35 universities focused on civic research and innovation.

    We believe that data- and technology-oriented research and innovation will lead to more effective, targeted, adaptive, and creative government and community services, improving social services, mobility options, urban spaces, public health, and more. It will enable sustainability goals and climate resilience. It will foster trust in government, train the next generation of the public workforce, and cultivate a civic-minded public. It will enable responsible and transparent applications of data and technology in government.

    MetroLab was launched jointly by 40 mayors and university leaders as part of the White House Smart Cities Initiative in 2015.
