Get smart, cities
Wednesday, November 24, 2021 by Tai Moses
Anyone with an interest in smart cities is welcome to attend the Texas Smart Cities Summit, a daylong conference assembling “leaders from local government, industry, academia, nonprofit organizations and more to share information on the leading practices in smart cities efforts, to share ideas and experiences, and to discuss and plan new efforts to accelerate smart cities development in Texas and across the world.” Participants in the summit will discuss successful solutions and “collaborate on how to improve and implement them into our communities.” This hybrid event takes place partly in-person at Austin Central Library at 710 W. Cesar Chavez St. and partly online. Get tickets here. Thursday, Dec. 2, 8 a.m.-6:30 p.m.
