In search of nimble cities

Our urban places are complex places. Cities are where, in today's digital world, the ideas and issues of our society often originate and get acted upon.

In a quickly-changing world, businesses and individuals must be nimble in order to stay ahead of, or keep up with, changes. How good are our cities at being nimble?

That's a question I asked recently on The Urban Times blog site - and I would be interested in your comments. What examples have you seen of nimble civic organizations?
