When we think beyond jurisdictional boundaries and work across sectors, we can do bigger things for our region than we ever have before. This #GivingTuesday, please consider supporting @ConnectedDMV in helping build a stronger and more equitable region. https://t.co/4Om7xX8E5S.

[George D Thomas @gdthomas23]

Public-private collaboration from planning to operational optimization is key to tackle transportation challenges in the DMV. Great to be part of the ongoing discussion with regional transportation leaders. @NVTAuthority @NUI_Info @ConnectedDMV @UrbanaNew #transpoTech20

[Northern Virginia's Transportation Authority @NVTAuthority]

And, of course, also a big thanks to our moderator @WTOP #NoVA reporter @amaxsmith!

Since we joined @GWBoardofTrade Consortium of Universities to launch @ConnectedDMV there’s been a lot of progress in shaping a regional strategy for digital tech solutions. Learn more: https://t.co/6BZ1DdmsnN

Well stated Jack! @ConnectedDMV

[Greater Washington Board of Trade @GWBoardofTrade]

Jack at #SDRConference: Why should the #DMV work together? We have a $530 billion GDP. If we were a country, we'd rank between Sweden & Poland. But you can cross a river & unemployment falls or rises by multiple % points. To be a real economic center we have to think regionally.

[George D Thomas @gdthomas23]

The rise of smart regions and connected communities is the next step in the evolution of the promise of smart cities. #smartregions #SmartCities @NUI_Info @ConnectedDMV

[Greater Washington Board of Trade @GWBoardofTrade]

Jack at #SDRConference: Fixing our congestion is going to take an all-of-the-above solution. We need massive investments in public transit, we need to invest in roads, bridges, etc. We need to embrace technology. We launched @ConnectedDMV to create a regional framework for this.

[George D Thomas @gdthomas23]

Hooray! The Connected DMV branding is official! @NUI_Info
