All over the world, cities are growing at unprecedented scale. This comes with new challenges in many domains like urban growth, resource management, transport, operations, or safety. As a result, cities are looking for innovative solutions that help to keep them attractive and to welcome new citizens and businesses. Digital solutions are here to help measuring, optimizing pro-actively processes and allowing decision makers to take informed actions. Join us to hear representatives from cities and businesses talking about those challenges and the way they intend to address them.
