Smart City Week 2011, 24 – 28 October, Japan
This event gathers key players from Japan and abroad in an international conference for discussing the latest trends in the planning and development of Smart Cities. Activities will include a General Meeting, featuring a comprehensive discussion of business models in the Smart City market, as well as numerous exhibitions and seminars.
Faced with the task of resurrecting cities devastated by the Eastern Japan Earthquake, Japan must now implement some form or the other of a Smart City concept. In creating a Smart City concept and an industry to implement it, we will also need to establish major channels of operation for that implementation as well as to initiate programs for gathering ideas and information or for propagating our message and proposals around the world.
Unfortunately, however, there is as of yet no organized venue for the discussion, sharing, and propagation of these ideas.
That is why Nikkei Business Publications, Inc. is delighted to announce Smart City Week 2011 --- A New Smart City Manifesto. Key players from Japan and abroad will be on hand together with representatives of both national and municipal governments to participate in an international conference for discussing the latest trends in the planning and development of Smart Cities. Activities will include a General Meeting, featuring a comprehensive discussion of business models in the Smart City market, as well as numerous exhibitions and seminars focusing on the constituent elements of and the component technology behind the planning and development of Smart Cities.
