LOS ANGELES, June 11, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Optimum Seismic, Inc. has agreed to serve as the Executive Sponsor of the LA Headquarters Association's Mayors' Forum on the Future of Cities.
Mayors participating in the event include: Terry Tornek, Pasadena; Gleam Davis, Santa Monica; and Meghan Sahli-Wells, Culver City. Serving as co-moderators for the event will be David P. Waite, partner at Cox, Castle and Nicholson, and Katherine Perez-Estolano, Associate Principal and Cities Leader, Arup.
"The LA Headquarters Association greatly appreciates the Executive Sponsorship of partners like Optimum Seismic in helping to connect leaders in shaping the future business landscape of Los Angeles," says John Adams, president of LAHQ.
"Optimum Seismic is very proud to sponsor this important seminar on the Future of Cities," says Optimum Seismic Chief Operating Officer, Ali Sahabi, an expert on earthquake resiliency and sustainability. "Our region faces many challenges and needs to act now to ensure its safety, livability and continued economic growth."
Today, cities around the world are making record investments in sophisticated infrastructures to compete on the global stage – to make our communities climate-ready and resilient ecosystems that are equally attractive places for people to live, work and play, according to LAHQ. At the same time, cities within the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area are facing additional challenges – those of housing and equity, mobility and transit, open space and density of development.
As the region prepares to host major global events – Super Bowl 2022, FIFA 2026, Olympics 2028 – in the coming decade, elected officials are responding to those current and critical challenges while making strategic investments for a thriving future for Southern California's communities.
The Mayors' Forum on the Future of Cities will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. June 13 at the California Club, 538 S. Flower Street, Los Angeles.
