Forbes: From Climate Shock To Urban Resilience: Why Asset Management Wins
Resilient cities? Forget ribbon-cuttings. This Forbes article dives into why asset management wins.

Behind every ribbon-cutting and flashy smart city project lies the unglamorous – but critical – work of asset lifecycle management. It’s this work that builds resilient cities.
In Forbes, Brightly Software’s head of product, Nigel Hughes, shares why resilience isn’t about shiny new infrastructure, but about knowing exactly what cities own, what condition assets are in, and how to make smart, proactive investments for the long term. From predictive planning models to closing the ROI loop, Hughes explains how the cities that win in the next decade will be the ones that manage today’s assets smarter, not just build new ones.
