Investing in ‘Smart Cities’
Huge technological advances are making tomorrow’s cities smarter
Rural to urban migration is occurring on a massive scale. As a result, cities of the future will need to be smarter – more connected – more efficient. Investing in the technological advances that will drive that connectivity could be a new source of long-term returns for investors.
What is a ‘Smart City’?
Tomorrow’s cities are embracing new digital and social infrastructure to improve the quality of life for their growing populations, and reduce their environmental impact. A Smart city is one that has technology embedded across all city functions that fuel long term economic development.
