Artikkelikuva: The Smart City Expo World Congress  2014
Cities will have a major role dealing with the critical challenges of the 21st century: climate change and other environmental threats; high consumption of non-renewable resources; economic development; growing populations; and ageing infrastructures. Technology is setting a new landscape of possibilities for fostering these improvements and making cities more accessible, manageable, communicative, and citizen minded. 
 
The Smart City Expo World Congress brings together forward thinking on cities and citizenship with ready-to-use solutions for making our cities better places to live and work. It is the key event for the smart cities industry.
