From basic internet access to next-generation public transport, a successful city needs to include everyone, and that requires collaboration across private, public and civic partners.
At this week’s Smart Cities New York, Mastercard will showcase how we are creating more connected and inclusive urban experiences together with our city and technology partners – through data-led planning, seamless mobility and digital engagement.
At the Mastercard House, visitors can experience the ease and convenience of contactless payments through a Priceless Causes activation. By donating $1.25 to the World Food Programme with a simple tap, students in Bolivia receive one week’s worth of meals.
