Welcome to the CityAge Podcast, Season 2! We’re thrilled to be back. Ben McAdams is our first guest and he does not disappoint. He’s a Senior Fellow at the Sorenson Impact Center at the David Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah and the founder of the Common Ground Institute. The Institute works with local governments to unlock revenue from their publicly-owned real estate. Ben served previously as a Member of the United States Congress, as Mayor of Salt Lake County and in the Utah State Senate. 

We chat with Ben about his Putting Assets to Work incubator and the impact it can have on cities and regions across America. Ben is definitely a thermostat (that will make sense to you in a few minutes). Enjoy!
