Stefano Negri: Preparing for Chinaʼs Urban Billion
November 15th, 2009 | Published in Speakers
Stefano Negri helps cities juggle their growing urbanization challenges. Literally. After juggling his way through Europe, one public square at a time, Stefano graduated as a Land Planning and Environmental Engineer. He worked for NGOs counting crocodiles in Colombia’s lagoons, cows in Tanzania, trees and cars in Italy. In 2001 he figured out he could have a greater impact on the planet by advising private and public sector companies for management consulting company McKinsey & Co. Recently, as part of the McKinsey Global Institute, he authored several macroeconomic research articles and reports including “Preparing for China’s Urban Billion”, which analyses the evolution of urbanization in China and its implications for businesses and policy makers. Currently he lives in Shanghai and juggles a wife, two kids and McKinsey’s City Service Line – advising cities on smarter, more efficient ways of urbanizing.
致力于解决城市发展过程中的挑战。他曾经就职于多个非政府组织，统计亚马逊地区的礁湖、坦桑尼亚的 牛、意大利的树木和汽车。于2001年加入麦肯锡咨询公司的城市服务热线。最近，在麦肯锡全球学会的组织下，他参与了长达一年的中国城市发展研究，研究的著作《迎接中国十亿城市大军》分析了中国城市化的演变，以及其对商业发展以及政策制定的意义。
