Highlights of the event:
Smart cities are forecasted to use 1.1 billion connected “things” in 2015. By 2020, this will rise to 9.7 billion*. The impact of today’s rapid urbanization has created an unprecedented push for smart cities across the world. However, the vulnerabilities of current Internet of Things (IoT) technology – a crucial component to smart cities – remain a big concern. “Connected Cities” at today’s IoT applications for urban development in Asia. We debate the limitations of current IoT offerings, and examine the roles of Governments and corporations in co-creating better IoT solutions for smarter cities. We assess the new value that such collaboration could create to make Asia’s fast-growing cities liveable and sustainable.
