2 01 / introduction 86% of New Zealanders live in towns and cities. As we grow, our local and central governments will increasingly turn towards technology to create competitive, liveable, cost-effective cities that will support economic activity and safer, more resilient communities. The Public Sector Network is pleased to present the Smart and Resilient Cities NZ Series, featuring two inter-related conferences on one day. The first half of the day will be dedicated to the Smart Cities Conference and the second half of the day will feature the Resilient Cities & Communities Conference.

3 02 / overview: smart cities CONFERENCE A city designed to be Smart will only realise its true potential if the sum of its efforts help it become more competitive; creating a place people will choose to call home, find work opportunities and play. As we turn our focus to building our capacity and capabilities to become a Smart City, we know we need to address key issues including budgetary models, planning for inclusivity of diversity, evaluating the real potential for Smart technologies. How can we ensure our investments financial, collaborative efforts and time pay off? This is a challenge for all of us: councils, planners, builders, technology providers. For our cities of tomorrow to thrive, we have an acute responsibility to think creatively about how we apply technology to improve our productivity and contribute to our long-term visions. The Smart Cities Conference will focus on how key actors create clear strategies that align with the collaborative efforts of their stakeholders. Technologies that support smarter and safer environments will also come to the fore at the summit, with a broad range of smart insights and innovations on show centered on making cities more resilient and liveable places to be. WHO WILL ATTEND? Federal and state government policy makers City mayors, city councillors, chief executives and general managers City planners and heads of planning Regional and municipal economic development officers Senior digital & IT leaders from cities, utilities, energy, health and transport sectors Infrastructure and construction experts Policy managers and advisors Financial institutions and venture capitalists Urban planners & consultants WHY ATTEND?

4 03 / overview: Resilient CITIES & Communities conference The international Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery which evaluates the threat of natural disasters in countries around the world ranks New Zealand at a high hazard level for almost every possible natural catastrophe. The threat of a natural disaster is never far so how we invest our efforts in developing resilience -better ways to cope before, during and after these adversitiesremains critical. Finding the most effective methods to protect our cities, communities and everyday civic life requires the multidimensional and crosssectoral cooperation of many different actors. The Resilient Cities & Communities Conference examines how to collaboratively build resilience across communities through social networks, and endeavours of key agencies across government and organisations through strategy, leadership and technology. Resilient Cities and Communities will highlight community-building initiatives, ways to create inclusivity of diversity, as well as alignment of local and central government initiatives to achieve outcomes greater than individual stakeholders can achieve on their own.
