Dear  Sir/ Madam,

IDC Foundation, GRC India and IRCU Serbia are going to organize a National Conference on Sustainable Development of Smart Cities on Sept 22-23, 2017. You are cordially invited to attend the same. Your rich experience, information and knowledge sharing for the other stakeholders could have been wonderful.

 

Background

The increasing urban population and ever increasing migration towards the urban clusters has put additional pressure on the availability of natural resources. This has caused several environmental and resource depletion issues. Increasing human activities, intervention and industrialization has led to increase the toxic elements in the resources viz. Air, Water and Soil; affecting the balance of habitat. This is posing a great challenge on the existence of the living and non living organisms in the ecosystem. There is a great need to create systems and networks to ensure optimum utilization of resources. As per one of the reports by McKinsey Global Institute (2015), India will have 68 cities with a population of over one million by the year 2035.

 

Management of Resources through Smart Cities

The management of resources with this additional pressure on the urban areas would become a great challenge. An efficient and sustainable solution for serving urban areas is need of the hour. The concept and model of smart cities is of significant importance. A smart city integrates the information and communication technology (ICT) and internet of things (IOT) to manage city’s resources cum assets. This includes managing local departments’ information system, schools, libraries, transport, hospitals, power plants, water supply networks, waste management, law enforcement and other community services through ICT based services.  The sustainable management of resources with efficient system will help in improving life standards of this population. As India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, Government of India carrying forward the vision of Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, has started taking steps to develop smart cities, which will be self sustainable habitats with maximum resource mobilization, optimized energy supplies and efficient public transportation system with a healthy quality of life.

 

National Conference

Keeping forward the momentum, National Conference on Sustainable Development of Smart Cities is going to be organized by IDC Foundation in collaboration with Grass Roots Research & Creation India (P) Ltd. and International Roma Cultural University, Belgrade, Serbia on Sept 22-23, 2017, which aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers, urban and environmental planners, information technology experts, regulators, administrators and developers and in fact all stakeholders involved in the designing, planning and implementation to exchange and discuss their ideas and share their experiences related with the progress achieved so far in various aspects and issues of Smart Cities Mission with a view to evolve innovative recommendations for achieving the goals and objectives of sustainable development of smart cities as being envisioned under a broad framework of Smart Cities Guidelines 2015 of Government of India. A copy of brochure can be viewed at a href="https://issuu.com/bhaveshjha/docs/conf_brochure_sdsc-2017.pdf.pdf%3E">https://issuu.com/bhaveshjha/docs/conf_brochure_sdsc-2017.pdf.pdf>;
