2nd intensive week
vendredi 10 Juil 2020
Today marks the last day of
our second intensive week for the Smart CityZens project. Swiss and russian
students met virtually to finalize their work and present it to experts on
Thursday (09.07). Their projects include : smart stations for public
transportation (bus, tramways, etc.), an app (Cleverly) fostering the reduction
of energy consumption, a business model to take advantage of the blockchain
technology in the energy sector, and finally, an app which calculates the most
efficient energy mix when planning the development of city areas or real estate
projects.
We would like to thank the
experts from Swiss Federal Railways SBB, the Cities of Basel, Neuchâtel and
Samara, for their support, as well as their interesting comments and feedback.
We sincerely hope that the student projects will find their way into the cities
of tomorrow! Many thanks also to our sponsor Movetia, the Swiss agency for
exchange and mobility.
Despite its main part being
achieved, the project will continue to live on, as well as this blog.
Publications and other articles are still coming up! Moreover, students and
professors will have the chance to finally meet in Russia for a study trip in
2021, if the Covid-19 situation allows it. We are looking forward to meeting
with our Russian partners and discovering the city of Samara!
