Makedonski Telekom will present the “Smart City” project in Barcelona

Deutsche Telekom Group will present the latest smart solutions for improvement of urban life and city development at the Smart City Expo World Congress which is to be held from 15 to 17 November in Barcelona.

Deutsche Telekom’s smart city initiatives improve the development and the functioning of the European metropolises such as Bonn, Budapest, Dubrovnik, Bucharest, Prague and Skopje.

Nowadays, the cities are faced with huge challenges when it comes to dealing with the rapid growth and development, which also results in economic and environmental pressures. Recently, Deutsche Telekom also became the first telecommunications provider that introduced innovative smart city solutions based on the new technology for narrowband internet of things.

Part of the credit for the success of these initiatives also belongs to Makedonski Telekom, which will participate in Smart City Expo with the “Smart City“ project for implementation of a modern integrated system for automatic vehicle location and smart ticketing in the Skopje city transport. The project has also won a prestigious award from the World Information Technology and Services Alliance (WITSA) in the category “Sustainable Growth Solution“ in Brazil this year.

“Our goal is for the smart technology to be put in the function of the modern city, and, through smart solutions, to contribute to the improvement of the quality of life, the safety of the citizens and the support to the economic development. The automatic vehicle location and electronic ticketing system for which we received the prestigious award from the World Information Technology and Services Alliance (WITSA) is just a beginning. We are already working on the development of solutions by which we will enable Skopje to become a smart city, following the examples of the world metropolises” – said Andreas Maierhofer, the Chief Executive Officer of Makedonski Telekom.

At the Smart City Expo World Congress, a full setup will be made for presentation of the latest smart solutions of the Group, starting from smart parking and smart street lighting, through smart public safety, all to electric vehicle charging and smart waste management.

In addition to new smart solutions, the event is expected to feature interesting discussions and guest speakers who will present the vision of Deutsche Telekom for the development and the future of the smart cities.
