Day 2 - Opening Address | Future Cities Symposium & Exhibition 2025

I think yesterday set the stage with a remarkable range of perspectives. Professor Sue Parnell reminded us of the global dimension of urban research and the importance of linking scholarship to policy and practice. Professor Stephen Goldsmith shared his experience in data driven governance, showing how evidence and technology can directly impact urban life. Mr. Masanori Kobayashi highlighted how international frameworks from the OECD to the G7 can guide sustainable urban transitions. Dr. In Hee Kim gave us insights from Seoul's urban innovations, while Professor Dirk Simmons underscored the urgent need to confront the limits of our current trajectory and to begin defining clear exit strategies from today's unsustainable patterns of development.

Mr. Leonard Ng showed how design practice in Asia is advancing new urban strategies. And Dr. Wo Tron Ya not only presented groundbreaking architecture, but also offered a powerful personal account of meditation and mental health. A reminder that sustainability is as much human as it is ecological and technological. We also heard from Dr. Lee Min he, our partner from CLC, about the knowledge that is transforming the Singapore center of livable cities and how they bring in that knowledge into transforming Singapore as a whole. Her reflections reinforced how essential institutions like the CLC are in translating research into practical guidance for city leaders.

With that as our foundation, today we turn more directly to the work of the Future Cities Lab. We will begin with Mr. Jean Hu, who will present on engagement platforms linking outreach and impact, internal and external. This is about how we communicate our research, our impact and connect both within our networks and and with society at large.

Afterwards, our research modules will present their findings in two parallel sessions moderated by our Associate Directors of Research, Dr. Srilalita Gopalakrishnan and Dr. Julio Paulos. These sessions will give you a sense of the depth and diversity of research underway here at fcl. Finally, we will come back together for reflections and a summary from our Scientific Advisory Committee chaired by Professor Susan Parnell. So let's keep the momentum going from yesterday, engage actively and use today to connect across disciplines, institutions and geographies. That is the essence of what FCL stands for. Bringing signs, design and policy together to help cities navigate their transitions. Thank you. And let's begin day two.

Thank you, Professor Schofer. We will now move on to our first presentation for the day and it is my pleasure to invite on stage Mr. Sean Yu, Associate Director for Technology at FCL Global at the Singapore ETH Centre. Mr. Yu is a technology leader who leads teams at Property Guru and various other tech companies and consultancies. Please welcome Mr. Yu.

Hi. Good morning, everyone. I'm so excited today to present to you Our Engagement platform, a collaborative platform that we have developed over the past four years.

So just a quick overview of what we're going to present today, the vision of the Engagement platform, what has led us to what we achieved today, the journey that has brought us to where we are, the engagement platform of today, what is it today and what we envision the Engagement platform to be tomorrow. So let's have a look at the Engagement platform as it is. Right. So of course we know the Fisher Cities Lab has been developed the past 15 years, focusing our research in mobility, energy, resource and biodiversity. Today we have more than 150/ researchers across 13 projects. And as a result of that research, we have developed 30 plus urban modules besides the knowledge that we have also incorporated and calculated. So Engagement Platform then is a necessary open source kind of digital infrastructure to disseminate the kind of knowledge, the tools, the data that we have produced over the years. So it supports daily research activities, helping the researchers to report their KPIs, but also ultimately to amplify the impact and vision of fcl. So we envision that the future of the Engagement platform is a transition to what we define as the Urban Data hub, where it serves as a central digital repository for data, tools and knowledge. So it will integrate all the FCL research outputs and able to also generate synthetic data sets for the improvement, enhancement of urban science and AI driven analytics, also enabling the modeling of various simulations to be run on the platform itself.

So of course every project is all about the team, right? So we have a strong team and a strong leadership and supervision team with Prof. Sasha, Prof. Arnold, Prof. Thomas guidance. And we operate as a dual hub concept. Just like all the SEL modules. We have a hub in Zurich led by Nicolo and his team of two engineers and myself in Singapore leading a UX designer and a data scientist. So my focus of course, in leading the Dataverse initiative and more of that later, we work very closely with the communication teams represented by Joanna from Zurich and Joshua from Singapore.

So over the years we have a lot of inputs and collaboration and some of these faces are familiar and probably maybe sitting beside you today. And we thank them greatly for their involvement and collaboration. So let's look at the journey milestones and key outcomes that we have achieved, the key milestones we achieved through the years, right? So in January 2022 we developed and we launched the Module Survey. So the Module Survey is where modules could highlight their research progress challenges, ultimately to input their KPIs for sharing with the governing board. So since then this has been adopted by all the FCL modules and has been used since the launch. So it standardizes the data collection and provides evidence based decision making for leadership and stakeholders.

Then in May 2022 we achieved another milestone to the launch of our dashboard. So the dashboard essentially consolidates all the snapshots of the research data and information, increasing the transparency and visibility of our research and its impact. We expanded the features visualization such as SDGs, spidernets, so linking SDGs to the research impact, so this actually is better able to connect with our audience, especially the public. We enable interactive elements such as live streaming within the platform and this paved the way for the maturity of the platform in mid 2023.

Then we hit our next milestone in May 2023 through the time and Space exhibition held at the Venice Finale. So this was using curated content from eight FCM modules. Together with our partner program FRS Future Resilience Systems, we developed and launched this content on the platform. As a result, we had achieved more than 4,000 platform views in May with an increase in unique visits of 74% and unique views of 109%. This established us as a knowledge hub as well as a collaborative hub.

Then in October 2023 during the future Cities conference, we used the platform itself to outreach to a broader non academic audience. So during this period we used it from registration to disseminating the knowledge of the program, the speakers to publishing the content, the recordings in the platform itself. And we also launched the Global Views which is a geospatial visualization tool making a web based version which is enhancing the accessibility of the visualization tool. We launched Module spaces enabling the modules to create their own content within their own microsite of the website. So this again another example of how we better try to connect with our audience. We have enhancing our capacity building through training sessions that we conducted biweekly or Monthly since November 2023. So the result of the outcome of this initiative was an increase in engagement of 57% increase in interactions on the platform itself, proving that the platform could be used to actively drive engagement and outreach activities and accessibility to the general public.

Then in February 2024 this was an important milestone where we first used the design taking approach for roadmap development. So rather from a top down approach of.

Defining features and functionalities, we conducted user research to understand the user's needs and use that as a means to drive the roadmap. With that we conducted 30 plus interviews. We had 50 plus survey responses on usability, data access and collaboration expectations. We uncovered four key challenges that we built later on in our roadmap about fragmented data access, unclear navigation, limited module visibility and lack of visibility. So the outcome of that was really the roadmap generation in 2025.

Then in March 2024 we reimagined the design of the experience of the engagement platform through the launch of the new landing page, focusing on storytelling, visual story retelling, focusing on the FCL's four pillars, the science, design, engineering, governance. This was widely accepted and we had more than 40% increase in unique visits, 112% increase in views and 109% increase in downloads. We also launched the Dataverse project which is what the key initiatives that I'm working on is essentially a secure data sharing platform developed by Harvard University over the past 19 years. We adopted this and we implemented this in the location of Zurich and Singapore also as a result of the feedback we had in terms of data sovereignty concerns, data accessibility. So the outcome was an improved user experience, clarity about FCL's vision highlighting through its four foundational pillars and the long term data stewardship of our rich research Data.

Then in February 2025 we further enhanced this through the Knowledge Archive. We've been publishing newsletters on the FCL on the engagement platform since 2023. So the rich archive of newsletter, the content generated by the researchers themselves to connect to the audience is so important and relevant we have now archived it and as a result we have actually achieved a 96% open rate per newsletter and 1.86 clicks per open, which shows a strong engagement of the content with our audience. So they are actually reading the articles they are clicking through. To understand more in terms of the dataverse, we documented a process and implemented a process to document the metadata within the data sets and have that available within the Dataverse for easier searchability. The outcome was a complete archive of our newsletters, ensuring continued reference of future but also that data sets will be available for future use for things like AI ML models.

So from April 2025 then we launched the AI Chatbot and the search features within the engagement platform. And this is an important feature because it enables a better enriched experience for context sensitive searching. People want to search for knowledge through the chatbot and the public is better able to find the content that they want, especially through the chatbot. We launched the user profile to better personalize the engagement with our users and we embark on enhancing our analytics to better measure these outcomes. So we incorporated things like clarity to track user journeys and engagement feature adoptions and today 100% all sessions are being tracked by Google Analytics and Clarity. And we have more than 3,500 heat maps recorded and data collected, meaning that we know what the user is browsing, which are the areas of the web page that they are browsing and where do they drop off. So the outcome of this is improved content, discoverability, user satisfaction and better able to track user behavior. Insights.

From June to August 2025, we launched together with the FCL Comms team, Joanna and Joshua, the social media campaign on LinkedIn. And this was again something that was widely accepted and it provided the voices of the program itself from the researcher's point of view. So we had a 60% increase in LinkedIn views visitors and a 52% increase in impressions. And we launched a new collections page which essentially groups various stories across various modules and its related content. Together.

We launched the FCL Exhibition page. A lot of you have probably registered and seen the program through there as well on the engagement platform. So we see a month on month increase in unique visits, 167%, 92% in terms of increase in views, showing that the platform is able to kind of share the outreach to the public.

And so with all that, the engagement platform of today forms the foundation for tomorrow, right? So we have focused our development on the feedback received from both our midterm review and also from the user research. Things like lack of interactivity through the introduction of global views and better visualization tools. We integrated Dataverse and AI Chatbot to enhance the experience of interactivity, feedback about synergies and how we could explore it across connecting different modules. We launched the module space for that, enabling modules to share their work and discussions, adding smart suggestions to connect researchers by teams or SDGs. We answered the question who is the engagement platform for? We defined the three different user types, the FCM members, stakeholders who are partners and collaborators potentially and the public. And map the various three journeys defined by location, people searching for research activities, by location, by people and by research topics. We tailored the content and workflow and there's further research to be conducted. Data challenges such as formats, intellectual property rights, access, accessibility. We adopted Data Dataverse for the secure storing of this data with standard formats and control access. In terms of social media integration, how do we make it visible engaging platform visible to a larger audience. We onboarded the comms team, Joshua and Joanna. We integrated a means to share this content to various social media like Instagram, et cetera. And then we answered the question on the roadmap, how do we make it more transparent and how do we prioritize it? So we prioritize our roadmap based on the user needs and the future roadmap will be shared in the next few slides.

So some key statistics of where we are today. So in terms of the web itself, we have an increase in 32% registered users. Comparing the past six months we have a 59% increase in event clicks, a 65% increase in page visits and a 45% increase in scroll depth. With an average of 1 minute and 6 seconds average engagement time, this shows that audience is actually reading through the article. Of course a scroll depth of 100% then means that they have fully engaged with the articles and content, but this has already shown a good improvement. Content to date we have now 2,900 data sets and files, a volume of more than 100 gigs of data, two 2K downloads in both the Dataverse as well as Engagement Platform and more than 150 plus publications. And how have we done in terms of engagement and community? We have more than 98,000 social media impressions, 40 plus total events. We have 500 event registrations across the two major events we hosted on the engagement platform. 72% of our visitors are direct entries which shows that they are aware of our Future Cities webfish and assess it directly. And we are now top two in the Google Search ranking for future cities.

So in a snapshot, what is the engagement platform today? It is a secure data repository, enhancing and facilitating collaboration, disseminating research impact with rich data visualization tools, ability to track KPIs and ultimately supporting the model generated content as well the module spaces. So how do we envision the engagement platform of tomorrow? We see that as the evolution to the Urban Data Hub.

The engagement platform today is three different websites. You have the Future Cities Lab, the engagement platform hosted there, we have the global views for visualization and we have the Dataverse to centralize the data storage. So how do we then group these three applications and make it into a cohesive user experience? So we focus on the key three drivers for adoption and continued usage, which is user experience, infrastructure needs and standardization. Ultimately, the Urban Data Hub serves as a central digital repository for our ecosystem, integrating our research outputs with real and synthetic data sets to advance urban analytics and drive AI. Driven analytics enables the modeling of complex urban systems within a control environment for analysis, hypothesis testing and insights.

So what are we going to be embarking on for the next six months? So we will focus on the next phase of the user research and mapping the user journey, curating the path to engage our users effectively through their user Journeys on the Urban Data Hub We've developed the foundation for data sharing, including the platform storage and cataloging both our research data from the existing phase and from earlier phases of fcl. The outcome was that there will be clearer insights and expectations and requirements and a better mapping of the user journeys and we bring legacy research into the new ecosystem.

So in terms of the user research plan, we engage the various stakeholders, do the personal and journey mapping and see how they engage the three different web applications that journey across. There we identify the pain points, what engages them, what does not engage them, what incentivizes them for sustained engagement.

These are some preliminary wireframes we have developed based on these three user types and user journeys. So we have the FCL member view where there's a dynamic feed to providing real time information updates, very module specific for the internal spaces. And then we have public view where we have introduction, we showcase navigation platform's mission, sales mission, key projects and small public facing. And then we have the stakeholder view, people who are partners or collaborators looking to work with us. We highlight key research outcomes, case studies and opportunities for collaboration.

And in terms of the Urban Data Hub, we catalog and mine the existing archives for FCL 1 and 2 is almost 18 terabytes of data. We define and implement the infrastructure and the framework to generate the synthetic data from existing models and data.

And then what will we do after that? The next six months after that, focusing on the phase two of the user research where we talk about implementation and the Urban Data Hub where we expand Urban Data Hub to support the next phase of FCL, including the domain module specific databases, defining standards and identifying scenarios for use.

So the user research plan is focusing on this phase on defining prototypes, doing the actual code development and using an iterative testing and refinement process to develop the new features and functionalities. We use evidence based results as a means to fine tune our our platform through Google Analytics and clarity. And then for the Urban Data Hub, now we look in terms of domain specific databases, the matrixes to define the reliability of the synthetic data, what kind of formats, what's the standard format that we should share this synthetic data? How can we better augment that data with AI? How do we represent the representative data sets, mitigate biasness, etc. Ultimately, we want to come up with an urban scenario that can be used to simulate this process.

So in conclusion, we have achieved much in the past few years. Thanks to everyone who has collaborated with us. We believe the evolution of the engagement platform to Urban Data Hub is a critical Infrastructure to enhance research efficiencies. So as a researcher coming into the platform today, if you could in a simple way like a chatbot, be able to find the tools, the knowledge, the people, the data itself that helps you in your research activities, then this is what we envision the Engagement Platform to be tomorrow as the Urban Data Hub. So we do hope we are a small team, we have big dreams and we do hope for your continued support. Thank you. Aru Hi, good morning everyone.
