- Presentations and demonstrations of modern technological solutions for municipalities, cities, and regions in the field of Smart City, including applications for energy, transport, security, and more.
- Educational and training activities: cooperation with partner organisations will enable the holding of educational and training events using 5G networks and other innovative technologies.
- Demonstrations of third-party applications: the possibility to present and implement applications from external developers and companies, which encourages innovation and development of innovative solutions.
- Meet up: the Archimedes Outdoor Education Centre will serve as a central hub for visitors to the Smart City Living Lab, where interested municipalities, students, companies and citizens can meet, discuss and share their experiences and ideas, leading to synergistic effects.
