Beyond Limits APAC President Leonard Lee is featured in CIO World Asia discussing Cognitive AI for Smart Cities. The interview features a special focus on challenges that smart cities face in achieving their carbon reduction targets on the supply side and the demand side. Smart cities in Southeast Asia are rapidly prioritizing digital investments to address the most urgent issues for municipal authorities. This is due to the ever-growing urban population and the desire for additional digital contact points.
 
“By 2025, 30% of cities will use automation to merge the physical and the digital, as well as to enhance remote administration of crucial infrastructure and digital services. This automation will be enabled by artificial intelligence (AI) and other technologies. By 2025, UBS predicts that APAC will account for US$800 billion, or 40%, of the worldwide addressable market growth for smart city initiatives.”
