A New Urban Era is emerging. Although the challenges facing cities remain enormous, a new paradigm is reshaping urban planning: collaboration, ethical technology, the common good, environmental sensitivity and people's needs at the center of all agendas. Cities are more alive than ever and their future looks bright.

Smart City Expo 2023 will be the largest to date and will show the world the smart solutions shaping this new era – those currently helping cities thrive and create safer, greener and more efficient urban spaces. A unique showcase of proven implementations that accelerate a smart, human-centric urban revolution. It's time to go beyond dreams and inspiration. We need to do what we say.
