Smart Cities and Future Internet
Is a smart city a choice or a necessity for the wellbeing of our entire community? We believe that it’s both. Why? Find out what we are doing in this area of expertise!
One of our main research topics is “Smart Cities and Communities” and as our vision statement points out we want to be an international reference in "Smart Cities and Future Internet". We know that cities worldwide are facing diverse challenges to demonstrate its commitments to environmental and social demands. The growing concern to find the right balance between urban development needs and global environmental changes challenges our company to create smart solutions for smart cities in areas such as mobility, tourism, energy and efficient resource management. These principles are reflected in the R&I projects that we are developing, as well as in our cities products and services. With this in mind, we felt the need to work together with two more companies, creating Citibrain (a technology consortium).
