Smart cities have evolved from bold ambition to everyday reality—shaping how communities grow, thrive, and adapt. In 2026, we convene in Raleigh, a city at the intersection of tradition and transformation, to explore what’s next for urban innovation.
This spring, Smart Cities Connect will examine the strategies, partnerships, and technologies driving long-term impact across city systems. From experimental pilots to large-scale infrastructure, we’ll look at how communities are navigating complexity and building smarter, more connected futures.
The conference brings together city leaders, technologists, planners, researchers, and changemakers to share insights, tackle challenges, and spark new collaborations. By fostering a dynamic and inclusive space for knowledge exchange, Smart Cities Connect empowers cities to lead with purpose.
As always, city leaders attend for free.
