K880 Emerging City Champions

I do know that by trying, we will accomplish great things.

Challenge

Each year, 880 Cities and Knight Foundation selects winners for their Emerging City Champions campaign. They were looking for a new, unique way to showcase the winners in 2015.

Solution

All the winners of the Emerging City Champions met in Toronto, Canada. These Champions were from all different cities throughout the United States. This was a great opportunity to interview each winner and see how they plan to innovate in their respective cities!
