A smart city connects all infrastructure - electric, gas, water, wastewater, stormwater, transportation, lighting, security - in diverse neighborhoods and communities using technology to drive operational excellence, increase revenue potential and support sustainable customer lifestyles. But how do we “think big, start small and move fast?” An “innovation neighborhood” can be the first step toward a smart city as cities and communities compete for residents and set the stage for sustainable growth and increased prosperity.

Specifically, Mike was referenced in the Engineering, Inc. article, “Navigating A Smart Future.”
