Wireless & Digital Cities 2008 - Barcelona, 11-13 November 2008
11-11-2008
Introduction
The third annual European Congress for Wireless and Digital Cities will take place in Barcelona, Spain this year. The conference provides a meeting point for the municipal wireless and digital government communities. It is an event for policy-makers, department heads, decision makers and senior representatives who are planning, evaluating or deploying wireless technology and who wish to gain key insights into how cities across the world are tackling the opportunities and challenges of municipal broadband.
Description
More and more cities are investing public money in wireless technology as local authorities realise that wireless solutions can deliver more cost-effective council services and yield significant cost savings.
This year's conference programme has been re-formatted to feature trackable sessions covering the 5 key areas of interest that are proving to be the main drivers in building connected communities across Europe:
Key themes during the conference will be:
  • Regulatory and Spectrum Issues
  • After the hype, what will be the reality of wireless and digital cities?
  • What is the right business model?
  • What is the best technology structure?
  • Case studies and applications
  • How can technology help green our community?
Focusing on these 5 key themes, the congress will address the challenges and issues faced by local authorities looking to provide residents and businesses with access to local authority services, community schemes and free or low cost broadband access through deployment of a wireless city network.
