The Smart City solutions market is mostly driven by large players that rely on proprietary technologies. Only recently have a small niche of solutions been adopting an open approach.
The forerunner technology in this niche is FIWARE, the most mature open source framework available today dealing with requirements for smart cities, and OC concept takes on FIWARE principles and strives to push them further.
The Orchestra Cities platform is offered by Martel Innovate, an ICT SME based out in Switzerland and having a subsidiary in the Netherlands. Martel Innovate is a Gold member of the FIWARE Foundation and has long standing relation with the FIWARE technology. Martel’s CTO, Dr. Federico Facca is amongst the core technical figures in the FIWARE programme as a member of the Technical Steering Committee since 2012 and member of the Board of Directors since 2017. Dr. Facca will be joining the summit with Dr. Monique Calisti, CEO Martel Innovate, who will be updating the community with some news on the partnerships and collaborations relevant in the area of smart and climate neutral cities.
