At ELBA\REC, we have been working on the smart city for almost 10 years. We do that for the Future City Foundation (of which we are one of the founders) and through the City Deals ‘A Smart City, How to Do It’ and ‘Slim Maatwerk’ ( City Deal focused on the social domain) and the DMI-ecosystem and for clients like Heijmans and EIT Urban Mobility.
Media and communications is a service profession, so ELBAREC saw mostly in the background. Where we wrote books, organized events and held summer schools. That’s how we learned about the profession. We understood it until we didn’t. We brought people together who took each other to great heights. That’s how we moved the market.
There is nothing wrong with service, but now that the market is moving on all sides, we are stepping out of the shadows. And that is why, from now on, we are working much more under our own banner. With you and for you. By teaching each other how to make the city smart.
We are in Barcelona during the Smart City Expo World Congress 2024. Read about:
