The Global Smart City Trends virtual event will be held from December 8th to 11th 2020. The event is organized by the Urban Technology Alliance, a global non-profit organization focusing on Smart City innovation.
The BRAIN-IoT project will participate in the conference and will be present with a booth showcasing the project innovations and technology deployments. This will be the occasion to promote the research results obtained on the project use cases, especially on critical water infrastructure management.
The conference will bring together innovative cities, industrial leaders, and researchers presenting the latest Smart Cities innovations. The Urban Technology Alliance has reached out to its members and network of cities to bring a global panel of experts and speakers.
The cities will be strongly represented with presentations of success stories from deployments in more than 10 cities including Saitama (JP), Grenoble (FR), Vancouver (CA), Busan (KR), Santander (ES), Kansas City (USA), Taipei (TW), Glasgow (UK), Sejong (KR), Casablanca (MA), Fujisawa (JP), Daejeon (KR), and more.
The conference includes presentations of successful smart city deployments and feedback on new technologies and the challenges faced in deploying them in cities around the globe. A specific focus of the conference will be on city resilience in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic: some cities managed to react quicker and better than others and the conference will analyze what can be done at the local scale.
The event will include live presentations, keynotes and roundtables, virtual exhibitor booths, and press rooms. It will be hosted on the MUST B2B Matchmaking platform.
