Smart Regions

We shape the digital transformation together with local authorities. Whether for strategy development, the organization of participation processes or the implementation of specific digital projects: The “Smart Regions” team at aconium GmbH will accompany you on your journey.

Digitalization is not just a trend, but an indispensable process of change in all areas of society that is leading to new structures, mechanisms and technologies. The transformation is changing all areas of our lives and work – from daily communication and the way we use mobility services to administrative services and leisure activities. We associate the terms “smart city” or “smart region” not only with a vision for the municipality of tomorrow, but also with a future-oriented approach to urban and regional development. This is because the planning and implementation of digital transformation is a complex, dynamic and integrated process in which various dimensions must be developed together.

Digitalization as an opportunity for rural areas

Current technological innovations such as 5G are the next step on the road to mobile connectivity in society. Even high-tech solutions such as multi-cloud alternatives, machine learning and artificial intelligence are already having a major impact on our daily lives. These and other technological advances offer municipalities future-proof solutions to tackle existing and emerging challenges in the sectors of public services, education, the environment and mobility. Even structurally weak regions must not fall behind in terms of digitalization: The use of digital information and communication technologies offers opportunities for rural areas in particular to strengthen the regional economy and improve quality of life.
