Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 09/13/2016 --Cities are engines of economic growth and centers of economic activity, with the world's largest 600 cities accounting for 70% of global GDP growth in 2015-25. The urban landscape is in the midst of a transformation, with the focus of the urban world shifting east. Cities in emerging regions in Asia will become major hubs of economic activity, productivity, and innovation, while the dominance of established metropolitan areas in developed regions will decline.
