Smart City Expo World Congress is the leading event for cities, pushing to create a better urban life by empowering citizens and enabling more efficient and inclusive urban services. Since 2011, it has been at the vanguard of change for cities and has developed a groundbreaking model of advocacy for a better urban world.
After a year of pandemic, SCEWC21 celebrates its 10th anniversary with the physical event coming back to Barcelona and a parallel digital program broadcast by Tomorrow.City. The event will gather leading international experts and 400 exhibiting companies to share knowledge and tackle the many challenges involved in urban transformation.
To cover the many fields involved, the congress program will be structured in eight themes, Enabling Technologies, Energy & Environment, Tomorrow.Mobility World Congress, Governance, Living & Inclusion, Economy, Infrastructure & Buildings, and Safety & Security. and will feature topics such as Artificial Intelligence, Digital Twins, New Energy Models, Green Spaces, Low Carbon, Micro & Shared Mobility, Cross-sector Governance, Citizen Engagement, Critical Infrastructures, City Ethics & Privacy, Urban Safety and Emergency Response.
Cross industry collaboration has been one of the goals of SCEWC since its inception. The SCEWC 2021 edition will strengthen its role as a world platform for knowledge sharing and widen its reach by hosting two new events: Tomorrow.Mobility and PUZZLE X. Tomorrow.Mobility will focus on promoting the design and adoption of new sustainable urban mobility models. PUZZLE X aims to grasp the potential of Frontier materials to solve some of the challenges that society is facing. The initiative includes a yearly event and a venture builder incubator to support Materials Deep Tech startups, attract investment and build a global ecosystem.
Societal changes and the climate emergency are prompting us to reinvent the way we move and the impact of our mobility choices.
This issue is now at the heart of the challenges facing public decision-makers driven by more sustainable and intelligent innovations.
The transition to sustainable mobility will not happen without public actors and solution providers moving forward together to allow access to mobility in accordance with citizens’ needs and the need to limit its impact. Intermodality driven by MaaS, the structuring and use of data, new modes of mobility and the transformation of historical players are all avenues of reflection for all public and private players in the mobility ecosystem.
Join us on February 1st for the Sustainable Mobility Forum and pave the way for a more intelligent, efficient and inclusive mobility!
