In recent years, the rapid advancements in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have disrupted the traditionally stable landscape of urban infrastructure services. Consequently, there has been a growing interest, both from technology vendors and public authorities, in the transformation of cities into "smart cities."

By participating in the Designing and Developing Smart Cities training course, you will acquire a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with smart city infrastructures. The course will explore how these infrastructures can be effectively managed to deliver desirable performance in urban areas. Specifically, over the span of five days, you will learn about the fundamental principles for managing smart urban infrastructures, with a focus on two specific sectors: urban transportation and urban energy systems.

This course aims to provide delegates with insights into public sector innovation that contributes to the development of smart cities. The goal is to create smart cities that offer more than just advanced technology, but also a harmonious environment for living, working, and enjoying leisure time. The training seminar will emphasize the essential prerequisites for building a smart and livable city.
