Smart City Innovation Showcase

AI • Smart Infrastructure • Smart Buildings • Mobility

Cities, counties, transit agencies, utilities, and ports across the Pacific Northwest are preparing major upcoming infrastructure contracts and modernization initiatives in areas like smart buildings, mobility systems, infrastructure monitoring, and AI-driven operations.

This event brings together the people who shape those contracts — and the companies that will help deliver them. We want the right stakeholders in the room before the contracts are released.

If you influence public infrastructure projects, build them, supply them, or fund them — this room is for you.
