Smart City Sprint Meta Plan

​Commence serious meta-planning for

• ​The Smart City Sprint event week coincident with Global Entrepreneurship Week 2026, sort of a Challenge Trial Run

• ​The Smarter Smart City Challenge 2027 commencing January 2, 2027.

​We can actually plan for the Sprint in November, however the Challenge itself has a full year of possibility and will depend on participation, scope, and grandeur, so we will think first about January 2027 and January 2028, the beginning and the end.

​Some suggested topics:

• ​Sponsors

• ​Prizes

• ​Project Topics

• ​Promotion

• ​Recognizing Participants

• ​Meetups through the year (ie Venues)

• ​Hackathon Weekends (optional)

• ​How to handle Project Budgets…

• ​Ideas you bring to the table!

​Meta-Planning Meetups will be online or in-person as schedules allow, may vary per specific event date, check the calendar!
