Urban Economy Forum has six platforms that are being focused on to network with specific audiences. Each Platform identifies contextual themes to promote innovative approaches and solutions to urban governance, management, and development that assist city leaders in guiding their cities towards economically, socially, and environmentally prosperous urban futures. 

Urban Economy Forum aims to do this by bringing together stakeholders from the six pillars in urban economy and municipal finance: City Officials, Urban Academics, Banking & Financial Institutions, Women, Arts & Culture and Sustainable Urban Development
