Sharing is caring
As part of the World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi, our Director, Benoît Meulewaeter, took the stage for the panel discussion “Overcoming the Data Challenge in Managing Cities.”
The session focused on how data sharing and integration are essential for unlocking the potential of advanced technologies like digital twins, IoT monitoring, and augmented reality in creating smarter, more sustainable cities. The panel explored how open data initiatives and robust governance frameworks can break down silos, enabling better collaboration.
Commenting on the topic, Benoît Meulewaeter emphasised:
“A key blocker to progress is the reluctance to share data. By linking data sharing with sustainability goals, we foster a sense of community and collaboration, paving the way for smarter cities and a better future for all.”
