Since Mayor Hou Yu-Ih took office, New Taipei City has consistently promoted smart city systems. By collaborating with enterprises, the city has applied technology in security, healthcare, transportation, and daily life, thereby earning the ICF Smart City of the Year (Top1) award as a world leader in the field of smart cities in 2022. In 2023, New Taipei City passed ICF’s full certification, becoming the world’s first fully accredited smart city. The forum has specially invited John G. Jung, the chairman and co-founder of ICF, to deliver a speech. Robert Bell, the co-founder of ICF, will share the international trends of AI sustainable resilience in smart cities. The Mayor of Dublin, USA, the former Mayor of Sunshine Coast, Australia, the Mayor of Kitchener, Canada, the President of the Institute of Research and Urban Planning of Maceió, Brazil, and the Founder and CEO of BABLE Smart Cities, Germany, will each give a keynote speech on the actual cases of artificial intelligence development in their respective cities.
