Keys to the Smart City 17

Conclusions

Cities sit on a wealth of potential. There is an overwhelming trend
towards the introduction of new smart services and opening up
of city data to improve quality of life for citizens. This will create
efficiencies in the city and new business opportunities for many
different stakeholders. Mobile operators are at the heart of this
change, providing connectivity solutions and advanced services to
cities around the world.

A city looking to implement smart cities services needs to consult
with their local mobile operator, and engage them in a long-term
partnership to reap the rewards that technological change can
bring to the city of the future.
