Accelerating sustainable growth through advanced technologies
The Digital Cities Challenge (DCC) was an initiative by the European Commission designed to accelerate digital transformation and industrial modernisation across 41 European cities. The success of DCC led to its expansion into the 100 Intelligent Cities Challenge (ICC), which broadened its network, scope, and resources. WAAT was pivotal in supporting DCC with comprehensive digital solutions and was a key player in launching the ICC.
The brief: Support a network of city teams, consultants and stakeholders to collaborate efficiently
Provide communications and digital support, including digital strategy, branding, and technology integration, for a complex project featuring over 100 stakeholders from public and private sectors across Europe.
Digital solutions: Engaging website and tools to strategic campaigns
Outcome
WAAT was instrumental in the Digital Cities Challenge success. The communication campaign that we ran at the start of the initiative generated so many applications that it resulted in the initiative being expanded from 15 cities to 41 cities at launch. And the successful collaboration we helped facilitate led to the expansion of the initiative through its successor, the Intelligent Cities Challenge. We were recognised for our contribution to the success of DCC by being installed as a lead partner in the ICC.
