The products that make cities "smart" will be developed, tested and perhaps scaled in our backyard.
A partnership of the Herndon-based Center for Innovative Technology, D.C.-based Smart City Works and 22 CityLink, the master developer of the Gramercy District smart city planned for Ashburn, is accepting applications for its initial cohort of companies in Smart City Works @ Herndon. The program, expected to launch March 27, is pitched as the world’s first smart city “actuator” — think next-level accelerator — focused exclusively on early-stage companies with products that serve the needs of smart cities.
