NYU Global Urban Summit
Presented by:
NYU Office of the President
NYU Office of the Provost
NYU Urban Initiative
The inaugural NYU Global Urban Summit is convening of stakeholders who are deeply engaged in the challenges, opportunities, issues, policies, and complexities of urban environments all over the world. It is a one-day summit that will take place annually, with a new thematic urban focus selected each year.
2025’s theme is “Urban Underground” which will feature physical, metaphorical,
theoretical underground urban offerings. From underground theater, to subway system
studies, to urban geology, the underground aspect that’s part of cities near and far, old
and new will take center stage.
The Summit is open to the entire NYU community.
