From closed island solutions and single products to cross-linked intelligent infrastructure solutionsHow to get enough electric power, how to bring enough goods into the city?How to manage the ever increasing traffic?How to reduce the energy consumption and emissions?How to ensure security and safetyof people?How to finance all this?
