Meeting of the Minds Webinar: Future Urban Systems: The Convergence of a Smart Integrated Infrastructure

Meeting of the Minds, together with Black and Veatch, will host a live webinar on the topic of smart integrated infrastructure.

For the last 100 years, Black & Veatch had been focused on one key challenge: making it possible for urban infrastructure to apply new technology to the challenges facing cities. Today, this means harnessing the power of connectivity and data processing. The result is that a city’s critical systems — water, power, transport, waste-handling, etc. — are becoming more integrated, more flexible and on more sustainable. Black & Veatch is pioneering a new approach focused on ‘Smart Integrated Infrastructure’ (SII) allows utilities and infrastructure owners to drive new efficiencies in resource consumption as data helps manage energy, water and bandwidth use. This webinar will look at SII — and especially at the methods by which Black & Veatch strengthens the ability of key actors to address the collective needs of various stakeholders in the urban community, including governments, utilities, industrials, universities, retailers, and citizens. Black & Veatch has a global workforce of more than 10,000 working in over 100 offices worldwide, with projects completed in more than 100 countries on six continents.
