What is a smart city? Can technology make our city more liveable?
How will smart city technology affect our lives on a daily basis? How can we use technology and innovation to harness the potential of our region for economic growth, jobs and a higher quality of life?
The council wants to provide you with answers to these questions and more.
Come along to a free Newcastle Smart City Initiative public forum we organised to share how Newcastle is using smart technology and what is around the corner as we begin the transition to a smart city.
Presented as part of the Newcastle Smart Future Cities Conference 2015 , the forum will be held from 5.30 to 7.30pm on Friday, October 2, at Newcastle City Hall.
The Newcastle Smart City Initiative aims to bring people together to make better use of technology and creative opportunities, and to build the foundations of a city, and region, that are continually seeking new ways to enable its communities to flourish.
This public forum is a unique opportunity to talk as a community about what it means to be a smart city.
