WINNERS: SMART City Expo World Congress Awards 2018

Alongside our IoT.ATL partners, we are delighted to announce that we have won the 'Mobility Award' at this year's SMART City Expo World Congress Awards 2018.

The team, partners and whole USA delegation are delighted at the news at winning Atlanta's first GLOBAL SMART City Award here in Barcelona, Spain for their North Avenue, Smart Corridor.

The IoT.ATL partners, fronted by 360NS, are very proud to have played a part (regardless of how big/small) in this achievement and believe this is only the start for Atlanta being at the forefront of SMART City initiatives.



Atlanta now sits alongside Doha, Singapore, Cape Town, Gaoqing, Shanghai and The Hague, as cities awarded for their work in advancing the SMART City agenda.


The North Avenue SMART Corridor, Atlanta, Georgia, USA, is fast becoming the most connected in Georgia, serving as a living lab for multimodal traffic management through technology deployment and data analytics. 

SMART City technology solutions applied here, are improving roadway, public safety, mobility and the environment.



skignz provided its 'precise location AR technology' to highlight the difference between, what is SMART Technology, ahead of the existing 'not so smart' technologies you see on most roads you travel.
