What does it really take to build a smart city? And why are more cities moving beyond fiber to wireless? 

Join us for a candid conversation with special guests, Christophe Colinet, Mayor of Carignan-de-Bordeaux and Smart City Lead of Bordeaux Metropole and Andrea Sorri, Development Manager, Smart Cities EMEA at Axis Communications, as we explore how cities are rethinking connectivity to support real-world services, improve operations, and accelerate deployment. 

From large metro areas to smaller municipalities, learn how a hybrid approach—combining fiber and wireless—is enabling cities to move faster, reduce costs, and unlock new use cases. 

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN : 

  • Why smart city connectivity has become the critical foundation for smart city success  

  • Where fiber alone falls short, and how wireless fills the gap  

  • Real-world lessons from Bordeaux’s deployment and outcomes  

  • How video-based technologies are evolving into intelligent, connected sensors to support smarter, safer urban environments 

  • How to get started: whether you’re a large city or a small municipality
