The buzz: Cities. Connected cars, connected devices, connected wearables and more. If your city was connected, too, the data generated could provide predictive maintenance plus smarter decisions to help your city run simple. That’s a good thing. Can your company be part of such a future metropolis? What societal impact can this bring to the Digital Economy? The experts speak. Joe Francica, Pitney Bowes: “You can look at tables and pie charts and KPIs and graphs…or one map. That’s location intelligence.” Stephen Goldsmith, Harvard Kennedy School: “The digital age that has so changed every aspect of life can also fundamentally improve local government and raise the civic spirit of our people and the officials…” (S. Goldsmith and S. Crawford). Dante Ricci, SAP: “City government and private service providers have the opportunity to remove the IT complexity built up over decades to unlock potential and transform quickly.” Join us for Smarter Cities: Future Metropolis and Societal Impact.
