Smarter cities | Kongres ITAPA 2013: Putting IT together
What cities need are ideas. Everything else is nothing but technology
Why should you not miss the lecture?
A worldvide visionary of the smart cities concept will bring a new fresh way of grasping the informatization of cities and municipalities. Get inspirated by examples of the best. The lecture should not be missed by anyone who is searching for ways and ideas to use IKT for city and municipality development.
Anotation:
