The panel discussion with municipal leaders in Canada will provide valuable insights into the importance of partnerships and collaboration in the development of smart city initiatives. The leaders will discuss how they have leveraged partnerships with private sector organizations and academic institutions, and collaborated with other municipalities to advance their practices. They will also share their thoughts on the priority areas for future smart city initiatives, and how they plan to address them. The panelists will provide insights into the evolution of smart city initiatives in Canada over the next 5-10 years and share any defining moments that helped make their initiatives a success.
