City-zen exhibits at the Smart City Experience Lab in Amsterdam
The experience Lab is situated at the ‘Marineterrein’ in Amsterdam, where the European Presidency will take place in the first half of 2016. It’s an excellent opportunity to visit and learn more about the City-zen project and smart cities.
The Smart City Experience Lab, recently opened its doors in order to provide an exciting experience to European decision-makers, smart-city professionals, entrepreneurs and citizens and to meet and share knowledge on smart cities. A wide variety of innovations are displayed on city challenges, such as energy, mobility and climate. The exposition combines interactive digital elements with a live tour, lectures, meet-ups and more.
Basically the goal of the lab is to display several innovations in a ‘kijkdoos’ showbox (a ‘kijkdoos’ is something typically Dutch. Information regarding the innovation is displayed on Smart ID Cards – a brief information card with the answers to several key questions. During the exposition Amsterdam Smart City will be organizing a series of lectures and workshops explaining the Smart City concept further. A web application will support the exposition online.
Not only can you learn more about the lessons and solutions of the City-zen project. The experience lab can be a great starting point for a real smart city experience in Amsterdam. Get inspired by the solutions in the lab and explore them in the city with your delegation.
