Today, 80 % of the Europeans live in urban areas. Cities occupy only about 2% of the land area, but they consume 75 % of resources and emit 80 % CO2. It is really important to find ways to reduce this consumption and the pollution. The aim of this event is to demonstrate solutions that will help the urban systems to offer better and more efficient services for their citizens. Smarter cities not only improve the quality of life, but also decrease the bills and stimulate sustainable growth. Smart Cities Exhibition and Conference are the logical successor of this year’s Smart Buildings Expo. The event will be held in parallel to the 10th Forum and Exhibition on Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy and  Waste Management & Recycling. It will provoke the attention of the society, institutions and businesses to the endless possibilities of the new technologies to build a long-term eco vision of modern cities. This event will serve as a platform for all key decision makers involved in smart cities to share their knowledge and develop valuable partnerships.   PROFILE OF VISITORS: Public Utilities Companies, Energy Network Operators; Construction and architecture companies; Transport companies; Installation companies; Renewable energy and waste management companies; Security System Companies; Building Automation Companies; Municipalities; State institutions; Investors; Consulting companies, etc.
