Bringing in the New Urban Era: SCEWC23

The new normal is upon us, and an inclusive future is no longer just a utopian dream; the new urban era is here, and the importance of a connected community has never been more evident. In this new era, cities are grappling with numerous challenges; November 7th-9th in Barcelona, the Smart City Expo World Congress will present its grandest edition yet, showcasing a human-centric urban revolution. The primary objective is to foster a global movement that unites governments in pursuing innovative solutions to confront the pressing challenges of our times.
