Inspirational lecture: “Smart Cities” – 04.04.2023

On 4 April, we had a pleasure to host another inspirational lecture on-line in English. This time we met with Jakub Smykowski, the founder of uPark City and a graduate of the Executive MBA programme of the WUT Business School, who shared with his his knowledge on the Smart City idea.

With the increasing pace of urbanisation, cities face immense challenges related to sustainable waste management, mobility, climate adaptation, and energy. As their political, economic, and technological power grows, cities can harness this trend to act as leaders in the green transition and drivers of the green economy aligned with EU goals. Cities need smart solutions to ensure that they are optimised for sustainable economic activity, energy consumption, and positive environmental impacts. These issues were discussed during our inspirational lecture.
