Kuala Lumpur will once again play host to the Cities 4.0 Conference and Exhibition from 23 – 24 September 2019 at Istana Hotel Kuala Lumpur to spearhead smart city framework among the ASEAN countries. This event is expected to be graced open by the Prime Minister of Malaysia, YAB Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.
By 2050, over 70% of the world population will be living in cities covering less than 2% of the earth’s surface. Never had city been so challenged and the trend continues to grow. And, this rise to many issues like rising inequality, environmental pollution, infrastructure access, traffic congestion, mobility, safety and health of residents are only a few examples.
Cities of the future should be hyper connectives, technologically equipped and smart; to improve the life of its residents. The development and combination of new technologies such as the Internet of Things, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence offer a multi and fast solution to transform cities to promote economic development, improve infrastructure & environment, enhance public services, engage with citizens and optimize costs of managing public assets.
