How can Luxembourg’s communes turn digital innovation into tangible local impact? With the launch of the Smart City call by the Ministère de l'Économie - Luxembourg and the Ministère de l'Environnement, du Climat et de la Biodiversité, LIST’s Smart City Hub helps municipalities co-design and test solutions in mobility, energy, and resources. During a dedicated event organized in collaboration with Syndicat des Villes et Communes Luxembourgeoises - SYVICOL and hosted by Ville d'Esch-sur-Alzette, representatives from municipalities, intercommunal syndicates, public institutions, and private companies, highlighting strong multi-stakeholder interest were able to get: ▶️ Insights from Esch-sur-Alzette’s digital transformation journey, shared by Jeannot Behm and Jean-Paul Espen. ▶️ A presentation of the Smart City call for projects by Jerome Petry ▶️ An overview of the SmartCityHub’s mission and support offer by Marouane LAHMIDI. Also, the participants contributed to hands-on workshops, co-creating concrete use cases across different topics: Smart Mobility, Smart Energy, and Smart Resources — including ideas such as secure e-bike parking and charging, unified smart parking, energy optimisation of buildings, drinkable water network monitoring, and a construction resource reuse register. The SmartCityHub is a testing and experimentation environment designed to help Luxembourg’s cities and communes develop and adopt digital solutions safely, effectively, and collaboratively. Co-financed by the European Commission and Luxembourg’s Ministry of the Economy under the CitCom.ai TEF – Testing AI and Robotics in Smart Communities, it is the only TEF site in Luxembourg and will support municipalities through 2027 and beyond. A dedicated team of specialists in data science, AI, cybersecurity, and digital twins works hand-in-hand with municipalities to co-design pilot projects and tailor services to local needs. 🔗 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/exFp4gZq Bruno Cavaleiro | Jurgen Joossens | German Castignani | Luc Vandenabeele | Laurence Johannsen #SmartCity #DigitalTransformation #AI #Luxembourg #smartmobility #smartresources
