Danish Webinar: Smart Cities - What are the next steps?
Cities and companies in Denmark are becoming more and more ready to use smart city solutions, but they still have uncertainties about the market and how to enter it. To help overcome them, the webinar “Smart city - sådan kommer vi videre” aimed to help take the next steps towards implementing smart city solutions.
The webinar was held on 16 March and was organised by Dansk Industri Digital in partnership with We Build Denmark. Throughout the webinar, participants were offered a hands-on starter pack for implementing smart city solutions, filled with information about public fundings, innovation systems, standards and recommendations, an overview of the market and many concrete examples of smart city solutions.
