“Building Smart Cities for The Digital Age, One Neighborhood at a Time”
Saint Louis, MO, September 12, 2016– iNeighborhoods develops high impact, cost effective, innovation neighborhoods for cities in North America. Developing the neighborhood’s ecosystem with high speed data nd Internet infrastructure, attracts business, creates employment and increases opportunities for neighborhood start-up companies, Innovation Neighborhoods accelerates the overall socio-economic development and prosperity of participating city neighborhoods.
“This is an exciting time”, says David Sandel, President of Sandel & Associates and Founder of iNeighborhoods. “Smart City initiatives are accelerating and gaining traction as evidenced by the White House’s $ 160M Smart City announcement, the creation of Smart City research pairs called the Metrolab Network, and the recent announcement of Columbus Ohio’s $ 40M award from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s $ 50M Smart City Challenge grant program”.
Smart Cities are at an early stage of development. We believe, the most effective way to initiate the development of the Smart City platform, is by engaging the community, it’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and stakeholder resources. By combining integrated community strategies with thoughtful technology choices, existing civic and socio-economic challenges can be solved, opening new doors of opportunities in both public and private sectors. This is the promise of the Smart City.
As citizens and governments realize successful projects, it becomes inevitable to push to a larger metropolitan scale for the city.
iNeighborhoods makes it feasible for a city, university or neighborhood, to move forward today.
