> The Centre for Social Innovation prides itself on the diversity of  
> its members. But recently, we’ve been thinking about the power of  
> clusters and themes. How much greater impact might we achieve if we  
> co-located organizations operating on similar issues? What new  
> innovations might emerge from the formal and informal exchange of  
> ideas, knowledge and resources among these groups?

> Why Cities?
>
> Cities are flashpoints of the best and worst of human culture: they  
> are centres of creativity, culture and promise –- but also places of  
> deep economic disparity, environmental degradation, and social  
> injustice. As more and more of the world’s population migrate to  
> cities, it is vital to build sustainable cities that support the  
> people who live in them.  We know that incredible talent resides in  
> Toronto and we want to create a workspace to support urban innovators.
