This is the translation of the presentation of our solutions in the context of the Smart City, which was shown by our Marketing and Sales Director Christophe Lephilibert, at the LIM-EVER Monaco 2014 conference. It demonstrates how our innovative solutions are serving the emergence of electric mobility in the Smart City.
2. Short definition of the Smart City
A city can be defined as ‘smart’ when investments in human and social
capital and traditional (transport) and modern (ICT) communication
infrastructure fuel sustainable economic development and a high
quality of life, with a wise management of natural resources, through
participatory action and engagement.
