Abstract:

Today, our cities produce unprecedented amounts of data, which can be harnessed and transformed into responses from the citizens or the government. The convergence between digital information and the physical environment, bound by IoT networks, has enormous potential. Applications can be indeed manifold: from waste management, to energy, public health, civic participation, mobility… The panel aims to engage thought leaders in a strategic dialogue around how AI can shape the cities of tomorrow.
