4th Annual Intelligent Cities Summit / Oct 7 - 8, 2019, Toronto ON
Intelligent Cities Summit brings together public sector professionals, ideas, and innovations from across the sector to address core debateable topic, “How to make cities efficient and futuristic?” Intelligent Cities are more than a trend – they are the wave of the future. They are beyond connecting infrastructure which Deloitte has explained rightly; ” The next generation of urban evolution is here. Moving beyond just connected infrastructure and smarter things, the smart cities of tomorrow engage governments, citizens, visitors, and businesses in an intelligent, connected ecosystem. The goal: better city services and a higher quality of life. This evolution, Smart City 2.0, enhances citizens’ experience and city decision-making using the 3Ds—data, digital, and (user) design.”
Across the globe, smart city technology spending reached $80 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow to $135 billion by 2021, according to a report from the International Data Corporation (IDC).
