The future of smart cities

For Elso Junior, a researcher at the Senai Institute for Embedded Systems, a smart city is a space “where electronic devices are used to collect data” and “better management” can be done based on this data.

Tais Nahas, Director of the Smart City Vertical at ACATE, emphasizes that apart from technology, a smart city is a “combination of factors”. According to her, it should be, above all, efficient, sustainable and “good for life”.

The 16 in 1 podcast is an NDI (Núcleo de Dados e Jornalismo Investigativo do Grupo ND) project.
