Smart City Innovation Center \u00a9 M\u00e9tropole Nice C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The \u2018Smart City Innovation Center\u2019, a new European benchmark<\/b><\/h3>\n

At the instigation of Christian Estrosi and in close partnership with Nice Sophia Antipolis University, the M\u00e9tropole Nice C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur has surrounded itself with\u00a0a consortium of leading industrial companies (Veolia, IBM, m2ocity, Orange)<\/b>\u00a0in order to create the Smart City Innovation Center.\u00a0The 300m2 showroom is located within\u00a0IMREDD\u00a0<\/b>(Mediterranean Institute for Risk, Environment and Sustainable Development), in the centre of the Eco-Vall\u00e9e. In the urban technology park, it neighbours\u00a0Nice Premium<\/b>, with the\u00a0FabLab EcoLab<\/b>,\u00a0the Sustainable Design School<\/b>\u00a0and the start-ups of the\u00a0Business Incubator Center<\/b>\u00a0(CEEI), particularly VuLog, Parkego, Advansolar, Gralon\u2026<\/p>\n

Through the Smart City Innovation Center, manufacturers will be able to pool their data and knowledge for the first time and increase the opportunities to experiment with new uses and services in synergy with the academic world of the University.\u00a0This level of integration and sharing in terms of the smart city is unique in France and will make the M\u00e9tropole Nice C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur a European benchmark.<\/p>\n

First application: Urban Environmental Monitoring (UEM)<\/b><\/h3>\n

Through 3,000 sensors deployed across an area of 160 hectares in western Nice, this monitoring system will be used to process environmental data (air and noise pollution, water and energy, waste management, etc.) to test new services for inhabitants, companies and the public authorities.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0We have created a data warehouse unique in France allowing real-time hypervision, with predictive functions for improved management of the region\u00a0\u00bb<\/i>, clarified\u00a0Christian Estrosi<\/b>, Member of Parliament, Mayor of Nice and President of the M\u00e9tropole Nice C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur.<\/p>\n

A leading ecosystem for the smart city and innovative uses<\/b><\/h3>\n

The Smart City Innovation Center prefigures the future\u00a0Eco-Campus<\/b>, specialising in cleantech, which will be set up from 2017 in\u00a0Nice M\u00e9ridia<\/b>\u00a0and will complete an already-rich ecosystem with many benefits for the companies that choose to base themselves there.<\/p>\n

Nice, which every year plays host to the\u00a0Innovative City<\/b>\u00a0convention, has positioned itself in the smart cities niche since 2008 and the city has truly entered into the circle of the\u00a0major\u00a0<\/i>smart cities, alongside Barcelona, New York, London and Singapore, according to\u00a0Juniper Research\u2019s 2015 ranking<\/b>. \u00a0<\/b>With many innovations and major industrial partnerships, Nice actively sustains an eco-environment conducive to innovation and emulation for start-ups and large corporations alike.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
