Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or Don your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer of the questions.

Urbanization results in more, large cities. Lager cities create a new set of transportation sanitation and infrastructure requirement and change the fundamental market dynamics for companies in a wide variety of industries. New technologies, process, products and engineering solutions are being created to address the unique issues resulting from the unprecedented rate and scale of urbanization that is happening now.

The impact of urbanization falls into three primary categories. The first is infrastructure, as public officials and city planners need to build infrastructure to support large populations in a sustainable fashion, which private companies will ultimately build and manage. The second are private development companies, which compete with their peers to build and manage large dwellings, venues and facilities that people live, shop, eat and are entertained in. The third are consumer products companies that sell goods and services to people whose consumption patterns are influenced by where and how they live.

Urbanization in the United States coincides with a deep need to modernize city infrastructure. The infrastructure for many American cities was created in the post-war era and has neared or surpassed its planned lifespan. Additionally, this infrastructure often supports a large population than projected and new technologies are available but have not yet been incorporated into infrastructure projects. We see abundant evidence that cities across the United States are looking for solutions to these issues. Among this evidence is the American Society of Civil Engineers, which scores United States infrastructure broadly as a D+, starting the United States requires 3.6 trillion dollar in needed investment by 2020.

Urban markets are different from suburban or rural markets for companies who build and sell goods and services. This is not a new challenge and some companies have adapted better than others as this new reality has started to take shape in recent years. However, the rate of change continues to increase and the collision of more people and new types of infrastructure will impact markets and force companies to continue to adapt. There will be companies that gain and lose market share resulting from the decisions they make to prepare for shifting markets. There will also be companies that fail and new companies that emerge resulting from shifting market dynamics.

Cities, urban planner and related public also face major challenge to accommodate sustainable growth and incorporate new technological in an appropriate, cost-efficient and environmentally sustainable fashion. Some cities will likely over-invest in the wrong technologies and design approaches. Others will underestimate the scale of impending change and fail to plan accordingly resulting in deteriorating and dangerous cities.

In summary, urbanization represents a structural change to the global system that both companies and public institutions will spend money to plan for. Unlike some of our more early-stage themes, urbanization is occurring now and will continue for the foreseeable future.
