Harness the Power of Technology and Creative Ideas to Build
Innovative and Inclusive Communities

The government of Canada is committing billions of dollars in funding to be invested in smart and intelligent municipal infrastructure. These investments are intended to support vibrant, inclusive communities with a high quality of life for residents and businesses. Smart City Heads can achieve this goal through accelerating innovation, data analytics, and connected technologies that address the needs of society.
