Chun Wo Innovation Student Awards 2020
CWISA 2020: Smart City
Technology has become closely intertwined into the many facets of our daily lives. Integrating the digital experience on a larger scale to the community can bring tremendous benefits. Technology can enhance the city’s decision-making abilities as well as further anchor a city’s reputation as a robust and business-friendly environment, making it appealing not only to locals and tourists but also to global businesses and talents.
Leveraging the power of technology, participants of the Chun Wo Innovation Student Awards (“CWISA”, or “Awards”) can creatively provide solutions to the livelihood of many. Reducing energy consumption, smart traffic control, and flexible street lighting are a few of the many pressing issues that many cities are currently facing.
CWISA will award practical and innovative engineering solutions to build a smart city – one that is sustainable, integrated, and livable.
