Event Background: The Smart Cities International Symposium and Exhibition brings together key thought leaders and industry practitioners to explore the most recent technology advances, business models, and lessons learned to date in making the Smart City a reality. The focus is on municipal governments and innovators who are pushing the envelope toward actual implementation of the Smart City vision. Topics to be addressed include leveraging the smart energy grid for broader municipal applications, smart transportation and parking, IoT applications and communications networks, and enhancing sustainability, accessibility and livability.
