A significant weather event occurs with destructive results. Is your city ready? Our gold-sponsor partners and a couple of Microsoft customers took on these scenarios in our Intelligent Cities Forum, to show how connecting city departments can make a city more resilient. Watch these Facebook videos to see how your city can benefit from digital twins, predictive energy management, collaborative operational solutions, and citizen engagement. Special thanks to the following partners and customers:<\/p>\n<p>Partners: ABB, Bentley, Cubic, Diehl, Envision, Genetec, Innodep, KPMG, PwC<\/p>\n<p>Customers: San Diego Police Dept and M\u00e4larEnergi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting ahead of urban mobility challenges <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s predicted that the average urban dweller will spend 106 hours in traffic jams by 2050 and that there will be 2.5 billion cars on the road. Air pollution, traffic congestion, greenhouse emissions\u2014these are some of the biggest problems facing cities. At SCEWC18, we showed city leaders how they can optimize urban mobility to help them tackle those challenges. They were able to see how they can connect citizens to a variety of adaptive mobility options, break down data siloes, provide real-time journey options, and implement proactive intelligent assets.<\/p>\n<p>During the &#8220;Enhancing Urban Mobility\u201d keynote, Marijke De Roeck, Director of Communication and Participation from the city of Antwerp, talked about how Antwerp uses a solution from our partner <a href=\"https:\/\/bemobile.com\/\">BeMobile<\/a> to provide citizens with mobility as a service. Citizens can use the cloud and AI-powered solution to connect to a variety of mobility options\u2014such as trains, buses, ridesharing, and more\u2014and find the optimum way to get where they\u2019re going. Cities can also use such intelligent transportation solutions to help them optimize journey management and enhance parking and revenue systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Increasing sustainability with smarter infrastructure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At SCEWC18, city leaders also learned how they can improve urban environments by reducing energy and water consumption, improving building system efficiencies, and creating more productive work environments with an intelligent cloud and intelligent edge platform.<\/p>\n<p>In the plenary panel session \u201cThe City We Want: Resource-efficient, Resilient, and Sustainable,\u201d Vahe Torossian, Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Western Europe, shared how the convergence of AI and the Internet of Things (IoT) has been a strong catalyst for cities\u2019 digital transformation over the last 12 months. Many cities are moving from pilots to IoT built in from the start. He said that according to our partners, over the past year cities have significantly increased the implementation of digital transformation technology solutions for resource efficiency, resiliency, and sustainability. He also mentioned that the ecosystem around an intelligent platform is really what is building value for cities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-20401 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Smart City Expo World Congress, Barcelona, November 14, 2018\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/SMART-CITY-2018-vahe-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Improving citizen, social care, and accessibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Microsoft spoke at a solutions session on \u201cDelivering Innovative Citizen Services&#8221; and shared how the <a href=\"https:\/\/customers.microsoft.com\/en-US\/story\/city-of-espoo-government-azure\">City of Espoo<\/a> in Finland takes advantage of AI to gain data insights that helps it provide better citizen services for vulnerable populations.
