Overview
Smart Cities: A Gateway to Economic Development
Localities know the transformative power of smart Cities initiatives to drive government efficiency and improve constituents’ quality of life. With the right digital infrastructure and data analytics solutions, smart city technologies can help create communities that are safer, more equitable, and more enjoyable places to live.
But smart city advancements don’t just improve efficiency. They can be valuable economic development tools for cities and towns looking to attract and retain new businesses – and draw new residents who are free to work from anywhere.
On June 14 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific/2:00 p.m. Eastern, join Government Technology and Fujitsu for a virtual discussion on developing and sustaining a smart city strategy for your community. Our panel of public sector leaders and industry experts will discuss topics including:
- How technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, and video analytics capabilities can create more livable communities – and how to build the right IT foundation to support them
- How digital equity and connected community goals can empower innovation in the private sector and attract new businesses
- How a comprehensive smart city strategy helps ease traffic congestion, reduce energy waste, provide clean drinking water, and much more
