Smart cities leverage the latest technology to address aspects such as city safety, economic development, waste disposal,  utilities network efficiency, urban planning using green solutions, transportation concerns, and the like. The past few years have seen cities absorbing digital transformation trends to improve their citizens quality of life.

The smart city-tag is a concept that has to be earned in Romanian cities, by pushing on the main aspects such as: safety  and security, economic development, waste and utilities management, urban green planning, smart transportation & smart infrastructure and technology enablement.

Smart cities are referred to as wired cities, digital cities, intelligent cities, cyberville. In 2021, there are core technologies that  will stay a part of the transformational journey of smart cities.

Leveraging on best practices of the already completed projects and the success stories of several Romanian cities, The  Diplomat – Bucharest organizes the sixth edition of Smart Transformation Forum to be held on 9 September 2021. at InterContinental Bucharest, starting 8:00 AM.
