What can you expect at the Smart Cities Demo Day?
FinEst Centre’s first batch of pilot projects will present their smart city solutions.
How we can get science from the labs to city streets and real people? Learn about the real examples of cities and researchers collaborating to create and implement new problem-based solutions.
Our pilot projects have been working on their solutions since 2020 and 2021. Now is the time to present the results of their research and development activities.
You can ask recommendations and advice from pilot cities and researchers. You can start preparing for the next round of Smart City Challenge.
Inspirational cases from Jacksonville, Dublin and Amsterdam
FinEst Centre will bring to you smart city inspiration cases from Jacksonville, United States; Dublin, Ireland and Amsterdam, The Netherlands, about autonomous transport program, carsharing and more.
Based on funding from federal, state, and city resources, Jacksonville in Florida has built one of the most ambitious autonomous transport programs in the United States. Dr. Rahul Razdan will discuss the vision, objectives, challenges and current status of this program.
Alan Murphy is the Smart Dublin Regional Manager working across all four Dublin Local Authorities to explore the uses of emerging technology to provide better public services. From tackling the climate crisis to bridging the digital divide, Smart Dublin uses collaboration and innovation to build a better, more resilient Dublin.

Announcing Smart City Challenges 3rd round
Smart City Challenge gives cities and municipalities an opportunity to propose real challenges for researchers and developers so that they can create problem-solving and value creating solutions. It gives researchers an opportunity to get more insight about real city challenges and work together with cities and municipalities. Creation of each smart city solution goes in tight collaboration between the city and the researchers team.
FinEst Centre for Smart Cities continues to build stronger ground for its long-term sustainability and provides smart solutions for cities. The pilot is designed to develop new knowledge-based solutions to the urban problems and to test it in the real city environments.
As the result of the 2023/24 competition, we would like to implement two large pilot projects with a duration of 36 months and a budget of around 1.26 million euros, and two medium-sized pilot projects with a duration of 24 months and a budget of around 860 000 euros. There should be ideally two cities as partners for these pilots, and one of them from Estonia.
