The buzz: “Data as a Smart City Asset is an increasingly important topic” (Ruthbea Yesner, IDC). The data revolution and the competition to become the smart city of the future are combining to exponentially transform our cities.
The buzz: “Consumers can now make more informed choices about energy usage and become energy producers and storers themselves – ‘prosumers’” (Simon Mouat).
The buzz: “The reality about transportation is that it's future-oriented. If we're planning for what we have, we're behind the curve” (Anthony Foxx) . Mobility in any city moves people and goods.
The buzz: “The role of digital technology is critical…to monitor the wide array of aspects of city living…connecting every citizen to policy-making and administration” (Harsh Tikku).
The buzz: “Turn up the lights. I don't want to go home in the dark” (O’Henry). When we think of a city, its nighttime skyline often comes to mind. Today, lighting is everywhere people live, work, travel, shop, dine, and relax.
The buzz: “Engaging the broad public in the city-making process leads to better answers.” (smartcitiesdive.com) In our mobile-first, digitally connected world, consumers expect to access digital services whenever and wherever they want.
The buzz: “The truth about ‘Smart Cities’ is that there is only going to be one way that they can become truly ‘smart’: through data and analytics” (David Barton, 7 Uses For Analytics In Smart Cities).

The buzz: “It’s simply not feasible to rip out utility infrastructure to build new…There is, however, another way..introduce a layer of digital intelligence.” (Peter Madden OBE, 07/21/16). With the U.N.
The buzz: “It’s simply not feasible to rip out utility infrastructure to build new…There is, however, another way..introduce a layer of digital intelligence.” (Peter Madden OBE, 07/21/16). With the U.N. forecasting 70+% of the world will live in cities by 2050, Utilities are feeling the urgency to deliver energy, gas, water, and other resources efficiently, cost-effectively and sustainably to the people, businesses, government and non-government organizations in urban areas. How to meet this challenge? The experts speak. Steve Sarnecki, OSIsoft: “To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk” (Thomas Edison). Russ Vanos, Itron: “Success doesn't come from pie-in-the-sky thinking. It's the result of consciously doing something each day that will add to your overall excellence” (Nick Saban). Lisa D’Alesandro, SAP: “There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it” (Edith Wharton). Join us for Utilities in Cities: Get Smart!
The buzz: “Can smart cities also be safer cities?” (Safe Cities Survey, Hitachi Data Systems 2015). With 70+% of the world projected to live in cities by 2050, public safety is top of mind. But achieving it is elusive.
The buzz: “Can smart cities also be safer cities?” (Safe Cities Survey, Hitachi Data Systems 2015). With 70+% of the world projected to live in cities by 2050, public safety is top of mind. But achieving it is elusive. What will it take? Blending crime-monitoring device data in real time so authorities can correlate a license plate with an incident; dynamically reposition surveillance cameras to view suspects; and intelligently predict crime, not just react to it. How safe is your neighborhood? The experts speak. Justin Bean, Hitachi Insight Group: “There is not a crime, there is not a dodge, there is not a trick, there is not a swindle, there is not a vice which does not live by secrecy” (Joseph Pulitzer). Dr. Alison Brooks, IDC: “It’s nice to be nice to the nice” (Frank Burns). James Alfano, SAP: “The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today” (F.D. Roosevelt). Join us for Smart Cities and Public Safety Technology: Monitor, Predict, Prevent Crime–Part 2.
The buzz: “I’ll never get over the fact that the buildings all light up at night….” (Alex Dimitrov, “American Boys” 2012 chapbook).
The buzz: “I’ll never get over the fact that the buildings all light up at night….” (Alex Dimitrov, “American Boys” 2012 chapbook). How can we brighten the lives of increasingly dense populations, given projections that 70+% of the world will live in cities by 2050? Energy-efficient LED lighting. How? It's already transforming urban lighting infrastructures into pathways that collect and share data and insights that are driving the smart city. Connected lighting also can be a backbone for IoT functionality. See? The experts speak. Susanne Seitinger, Philips Lighting: “At night the buildings must sleep” (Alvar Aalto). Matthias Weis, SM!GHT: “If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done” (Thomas Jefferson). Marlyn Zelkowitz, SAP: “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light” (Plato). Join us for You Light Up My Life: Smart Cities, Smart Lighting – Part 2.
The buzz: “Government’s first duty and highest obligation is public safety” (Arnold Schwarzenegger). With 70+% of the world projected to live in cities by 2050, public safety is top of mind.
The buzz: “Government’s first duty and highest obligation is public safety” (Arnold Schwarzenegger). With 70+% of the world projected to live in cities by 2050, public safety is top of mind. But although today’s crime-monitoring devices are GPS-tracked in real time – video surveillance, gunshot recorders, license plate scanners – the captured data needs to be blended on a map, so first responders can predict, instead of simply react to, crime. How safe is your neighborhood? The experts speak. Justin Bean, Hitachi Insight Group: “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied together in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly” (Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.). Dr. Alison Brooks, IDC: “Last guys don’t finish nice” (Saul Alinsky). James Alfano, SAP: “We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible” (Vince Lombardi). Join us for Smart Cities and Public Safety Technology: Monitor, Predict, Prevent Crime.
The buzz: “Life is all about seating and lighting” (Graydon Carter). By 2050, 70+% of the world will live in cities.
The buzz: “Life is all about seating and lighting” (Graydon Carter). By 2050, 70+% of the world will live in cities. How to brighten the lives of concentrated populations? Energy-efficient LED lighting is transforming urban lighting infrastructures into information pathways that collect and share data and insights that drive the smart city. Connected lighting can even be a backbone for IoT functionality. See? The experts speak. Susanne Seitinger, Philips Lighting: “The proliferation of zoning regulations in the twentieth century […] has disabled local innovation and growth, frozen the city in time…the Brittle City” (Richard Sennett). Matthias Weis, SM!GHT: “Persistence is very important. You should not give up unless you are forced to give up” (Elon Musk). Marlyn Zelkowitz, SAP: “Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody” (Jane Jacobs). Join us for You Light Up My Life: Smart Cities, Smart Lighting.
The buzz: “There are many initiatives for Smart Cities, but we also need Smart Citizens” (Ankit Lai). By 2050, over 70 percent of the world’s population will live in cities.
The buzz: “There are many initiatives for Smart Cities, but we also need Smart Citizens” (Ankit Lai). By 2050, over 70 percent of the world’s population will live in cities. How to meet the demands of such concentrated populations? Savvy leaders are tapping into civic innovation, hackathons for the art of the possible, and startup-in-residence programs pairing startups with government agencies. Civic Innovation is so top-of-mind, there’s an MBA for it! The experts speak. Jay Nath, City of San Francisco: “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much” (Helen Keller). Maryann Kongovi, Code for America: “Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody” (Jane Jacobs). Marlyn Zelkowitz, SAP: “Make the world work, for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation...” (R. Buckminster Fuller).
