Episode 76: Being smart, when it counts

Smart Cities Chronicles

In this episode we hear from one of Australia's award winning smart cities - Newcastle, NSW - on how their smart cities underpinnings have facilitated the successful deployment of a creative new app to help catalyse economic stimulus and social engagement. Dr Nathaniel Bavinton (Newcastle City Council) and David Catalovski (GreenBe) join the Chronicles to share the story behind the 'Lean in Newy' app. Part community engagement tool, part challenge platform, and part economic stimulus vehicle, the Lean in Newy app is set to deliver some meaningful outcomes in this innovation-led city.
