As the world urbanizes, sustainable development and economic growth depend increasingly on successful urban growth management. With the right technology — and the know-how to govern it — cities can lead the way in solving problems in energy, transportation, healthcare, education, and natural disaster response while making their communities more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable. What best practices for smart cities are used by the countries of Eurasia and how to make Eurasian smart cities more inclusive – these issues will be discussed at StrategEast.Live panel discussion “Smart cities in Eurasia”.
