Our perspective comes from our work.LGIS is helping local governments with innovation through:• Partnerships – Telstra, Wagners etc.• RPA (UAV/Drone) Gateway Service that drives the market,

• Developing end to end product solutions and financial approaches that help clients get into innovation – Smart Water Meters.

Don’t be silly. With big infrastructure it’s about transition not disruption.

However, the local

government model can

be disrupted.

Smart Cities. Driving a new energy supply and demand nexus.

The digital economy will drive new jobs but not all of them will need to commute to the CBD.

So… what will happen to the CBD?
