  • Strategic Infrastructure Dialogue: GT Smart Cities Conference

    The ​term ​‘smart ​cities’ ​was ​first ​used ​in ​its ​modern ​sense ​in ​the ​1990s. ​Yet, ​as ​of ​today, ​no ​city ​around ​the ​globe ​can ​claim ​to ​have ​successfully ​integrated ​a ​holistic ​smart ​cities ​approach. ​ One ​explanation ​is ​that ​there ​has ​been ​a ​disconnect ​between ​smart ​cities ​technologies ​and ​the ​residents ​of ​the ​communities ​these ​technologies ​are ​supposed ​to ​serve. ​ ​ The ​Georgia ​Institute ​of ​Technology ​(Georgia ​Tech) ​will ​hold ​a ​two-day ​Smart ​Cities ​Dialogue ​on ​May ​7-8, ​2019 ​to ​help ​frame ​the ​debate ​on ​this ​paradigm. ​It ​will ​discuss ​how ​to ​develop ​smarter ​communities ​that ​understand ​urban ​life ​primarily ​as ​a ​social, ​and ​only ​secondarily ​as ​a ​technical ​and ​logistic ​ecosystem. ​Topics ​will ​capture ​inclusive ​engagement, ​smaller ​communities ​that ​may ​not ​see ​themselves ​as ​part ​of ​the ​“smart ​cities” ​effort, ​social ​and ​socioeconomic ​mobility ​as ​well ​as ​connections ​within ​economic ​regions. In ​addition ​to ​bringing ​together ​key ​national ​and ​international ​stakeholders ​from ​local ​governments ​as ​well ​as ​industry ​and ​academic ​leaders ​for ​a ​series ​of ​insightful ​discussions, ​attendees ​will ​have ​the ​opportunity ​to ​experience ​‘research ​in ​action’ ​and ​discover ​some ​of ​Georgia ​Tech’s ​latest ​solutions ​in ​this ​domain.
