Since Google affiliate Sidewalk Labs pulled out of Toronto over two years ago, global enthusiasm remains unabated for smart city technologies to solve for complex urban challenges, achieve fiscal efficiencies and increase economic competitiveness. But are these sophisticated urban technology platforms delivering on their promises? Was Toronto’s reticence to embrace the utopian dream of a global technology company a missed opportunity - or a savvy rejection of a business play that had Toronto on the losing end?
