Smart City Expo World Congress highlights
We were delighted to participate in Smart City Expo World Congress 2023, showcasing the ways in which we’re partnering with city leaders, planners, solution providers, funding institutions and other stakeholders to create cities of the future.
Through our booth, theatre programming and congress sessions we discussed the importance of cities and how these complex ecosystems can create value for all stakeholders that interact with cities.
