[fusion_text]The first open data program for startups in Lisbon, Smart Open Lisboa, that will improve the lives of millions of people, is about to begin…
After a thoughtful selection of projects we have chosen 10 startups to join us for the experimentation phase. These promising projects to improve Lisbon’s city life will now get to test their solutions in real life.
Because we truly believe that Lisbon is a city of the future, we would like you to join us for our kick-off this September the 12th. During this event these ambitious entrepreneurs will introduce their projects and plans to the world, putting Lisbon under the spotlight when it comes to Smart Cities.
It’s time to make Lisbon a better city to live in and to use technology and irreverent approaches to turn it into a reality.
