First Australian Smart Cities Awards Program launched
A Smart Cities Awards Program has been announced by the Smart Cities Council Australia New Zealand (SCCANZ).
This will be a platform to help promote the best practice achievements of government, private sector and third sector.
SCCANZ Executive Director Adam Beck has also announced the appointment of David Singleton as the program’s inaugural chair.
For more than 40 years, Singleton has been contributing to the advancement of industry practice and government leadership. He has been named five times as one of the 100 most influential engineers in Australia and is a member of council at Swinburne University of Technology and a non-executive director at Standards Australia.
“In his roles as chairman of the Infrastructure Sustainability Council of Australia and chair of Swinburne’s Smart Cities Research Institute Advisory Board, David brings to our awards program a level of experience in city shaping that is second to none,” said Beck.
Nominations for the Australian Smart Cities Awards Program will open in early 2018, with awards categories to cover leadership and governance, analytics and performance, Internet of Things, social impact, and new business models.
Sponsorship of the awards program will open shortly.
