1/Yesterday was the first of our new Sunny Side Up Speaker Series put on in partnership with the University of South Florida St Petersburg Kate Tiedemann College of Business, featuring Bill Wallace, Executive Director of US Ignite. The event attracted lots of locals interested in learning more about smart cities and how technology will change the way cities are being developed. This crowd also got to witness the announcement of St. Petersburg as the newest addition to the US Ignite Smart Cities Network, becoming the 27th city to do so.
