Join us on March 13, 2025, at the PROTO Invention Factory in Tallinn (or online) for the Smart City Exchange Forum 2025.
Explore how data, AI, and smart governance frameworks are transforming urban environments into sustainable, people-centered spaces. Network with municipal leaders, researchers, and tech providers, and gain actionable insights into real-world strategies for shaping resilient cities.
