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.
