When cities work in harmony

The cities of tomorrow will not be defined by individual systems, but by how seamlessly those systems work together, to create more resilient futures for the communities they serve.

At Smart City Expo World Congress, 3-5 November 2026, Deloitte will explore the future of connected infrastructure. You can hear from Deloitte leaders across main and thematic stage sessions and visit our booth for executive discussions and interactive experiences.

Together, we’ll explore how connected systems can accelerate modernization, unlock greater value and help cities work in harmony.

Stay tuned for speaker announcements, program updates and the latest from Deloitte at Smart City Expo World Congress.

What Does A Resilient City Look Like in 2050?

What Does A Resilient City Look Like in 2050?

In-person
3 Nov 11:40 - 12:25 CET
Join our Global Infrastructure Business leader, Michael Flynn on the Main Stage, for a forward-looking discussion on how cities adapt to growing pressures and how urban leaders must rethink infrastructure, buildings, and energy systems to build safer, more sustainable, and future-ready urban environments. Built on today’s breakthroughs and tomorrow’s innovations, what lies ahead is both ambitious and fast approaching. Yet making this vision a reality will require the right funding models and strategic partnerships. This plenary explores what resilient urban infrastructure could look like by 2050, and how AI, energy systems, adaptive design principles, and new models of collaboration may reshape the future of urban life.

Join our EMEA Sustainability and Infrastructure Leader, Eline Brugman on the Cities x People Stage, for a discussion that focuses on the central role of finance and investment in enabling urban transformation and supporting the progress cities need across the world. Looking at climate finance, partnership schemes, and global funding mechanisms, the session examines how these models contribute to sustainable urban development and are gaining relevance within the global urban agenda, especially where access to resources determines cities’ ability to move from ambition to implementation. Lastly, it questions how financing and investment approaches may evolve in the years ahead to address existing challenges and respond to growing priorities.

Sensing, Predicting, and Responding to Urban Risk

In-person
4 Nov 14:10 - 14:55 CET
Join our US Infrastructure Leader, Kelly Marchese on the AI x Cities Stage, for a discussion on how cities are adopting more connected and intelligent systems to monitor and anticipate risks, improve coordination and strengthen their capacity to respond in real time. This session explores how technologies such as IoT sensing, predictive analytics, and integrated safety systems are helping cities detect threats earlier, improve emergency response, strengthen cybersecurity, and build greater urban resilience. As public safety becomes increasingly linked to data, connectivity, and cross-sector coordination, the discussion will examine how cities can better protect people, infrastructure, and essential services in a more complex and rapidly changing urban environment.

How can cities build AI economies that deliver real value for the community?

How can cities build AI economies that deliver real value for the community?

In-person
4 Nov 14:30 - 16:00 CET

Join us for a session in room 1.4, CC1 Gran Via on What would it take for AI to make cities better places to live not just more technologically advanced? From improving public services to helping local businesses grow, promising use cases need to deliver measurable value to communities. Scaling them takes more than computing power: cities need sufficient energy, investment, skilled people, and trusted data. They should also address concerns around privacy, regulation and compliance, sovereignty, and the people affected by AI-enabled decisions.

Join Deloitte and NVIDIA speakers alongside public- and private-sector leaders to examine what early city pilots can teach us about financing and scaling AI-enabled programmes from pilot to production helping to turn AI investment into reliable services and lasting economic and social value.
