Getting real about smart cities

Smart city proposals should not be a 'solution in search of a problem'. To suceed, these complex and multi stakeholder initiatives need to be driven by strong leaders, delivering meaningful outcomes to the community, employing scalable and replicable solutions.

Analysys Mason and Pinsent Masons have the pleasure of inviting you to a special event focussed on implementing sustainable smart cities.

Panel session

Our panel session - led by experts in the smart cities space from the public and private sector - will cover 5 key areas:

Getting the foundations right: what are the key smart city drivers and imperatives which can secure long term strategic value across a large scale urban environment?
Financing and funding: where should the required investment come from and what are the options to secure the respective business case(s)?
Delivery and implementation: which governance, infrastructure and service models are most appropriate to support large scale, long term operations?
Connectivity, security and resilience: how to overcome security issues and user fears about privacy?
Engagement: who are the end users and what are the immediate value propositions?
