Smart Regions

Working hand in hand with municipalities, the aconium Smart Regions team designs and accompanies them on their way to digital transformation. Whether you want to develop a digital strategy, design participation processes or implement specific digital projects, we will support you reliably and competently onsite.

Digitalisation is not just a trend, but an irreversible transformation process in all areas of society, ultimately leading to new structures, mechanisms and technologies. The digital transformation has a wide-ranging impact on all aspects of our lives – from our daily communication to the way we use mobility services, fulfil administrative tasks or engage in recreational activities. The “smart city” or “smart region” is more than a vision for the municipality of the future – it is also a future-oriented approach to urban and regional development. The planning and implementation of digital transformation is a complex, dynamic and integrated process in which various dimensions must be tuned together.

Digitalisation is a chance for rural areas

Current technological developments like 5G are driving the next level of mobile and ubiquitous connectivity for society and industry. High-tech solutions such as multi-cloud alternatives, machine learning and Artificial Intelligence have already a major impact on our daily lives. Such technology advancements provide municipalities promising solutions to tackle present and emerging challenges regarding the public services, education, environment or mobility. On the road to digital transformation, vulnerable regions must not fall behind: the use of digital Information and Communication Technologies offers opportunities, especially for remote areas, to support thriving local economies and vibrant communities.
