We are glad to announce that the eMOTIONAL Cties project will be present at Portugal Smart Cities Summit 2022 that will be held at FIL – Parque das Nações, between the 11th and 13th of October. There will be eight exhibition sectors, namely governance, mobility, smart cities, energies, IT & IOT, water, waste and environment, cyber security, health and wellness.

This is the largest national event of knowledge transfer and innovation and a great opportunity for local authorities, national and international public and private entities, higher and secondary education Institutions, academic and scientific education, as well as technological companies and startups to reflect on the future of organizing cities in the world.

The “Smart Cities” concept encompasses more than mobility, digital platforms or sustainability. The key objective is the incorporation of all these areas in order to improve the lives of citizens. Therefore, Portugal Smart Cities Summit is the place of convergence and the physical marketplace for creating opportunities for the national and international market.
