Welcome back to another edition of the unparalleled event in Barcelona, Smart City Expo World Congress, the global platform unmatched in engaging leaders from governments, businesses, international organizations, academia, and civil society to solve the world's toughest issues.
We have come a long way since 2011 and the smart city opportunity has become a reality. Today we are happily experiencing this hands-on feeling for the results of the work undertaken, our #CitiesMadeOfDreams, moving from small proof-of-concept projects to smart implementation at scale. We are making our dreams come true together.
Here are some key points on why cities are smart cities are crucial for our future:
70% of the global population will be living in cities by 2050.
over 80% of global GDP is generated in cities
the global smart cities market size will be worth 5.57 trillion dollars by 2025
within 40 years we will have built as many cities as in the entire human history
That is why at Smart City Expo Barcelona World Congress we will be covering the most important topics to ensure that the future cities will be cities to live in:
Digital Transformation
Urban Environment
Mobility
Governance and Finance
Inclusive and Sharing Cities
