Smart City Expo World Congress took place in Barcelona, Spain between 17 and 19th of November 2015. Erdem Gülgener, Board Member of TAGES was there to get together with many experts to be inspired, share experience and knowledge, strive for innovation and network.
Smart City Expo WORLD CONGRESS was held at Barcelona on November 17th-19th, 2015 with more than 450 companies and institutions and more than 14.000 attendees taking part in the event. Besides the ICT software and infrastructure providers there were many city authorities and municipalities who wanted to share their experiences and solutions developed. The Expo also provided a recreation of a real smart city in a 2.000m2 space where “big boys” had a chance to show their solutions. In addition seven most advanced solutions, related to at least one of the Congress tracks: smart society, technology, governance, energy, mobility and sustainable city, were chosen for exhibition. 43 countries with more than 100 cities attended to the world congress event.
During the event Erdem GULGENER, Board Member of TAGES, one of the partners of the ICT PSP Smart City RADICAL Project (http://www.radical-project.eu/), visited Expo on behalf of RADICAL consortium and disseminated the project by distributing published materials, peer-to-peer conversations. He also met cities and introduced them the smart city RADICAL platform and services (Cycling Safety Improvement, Products Carbon Footprint Management, Object driven Data Journalism, Participatory Urbanism, Augmented Reality and Eco‐consciousness) in order to see their replication possibilities in the cities.
RADICAL is an ICT PSP Project based on social networks and internet-of-things which gathers 17 partners across Europe. This project opens new horizons in the development and deployment of interoperable social networking and IoT services in Smart Cities, creating a novel ICT platform which gathers services that could be flexibly and successfully customized and replicated across multiple cities.
