Smart City Project Support for
Overarching Concept Development

Greenkern helped to develop an overarching concept to be presented to the Board of Management. The objective was to introduce a smart city project in Central China to VGC and to present its advantages.

Specifically, Greenkern argued that this project is a great opportunity for future-proofing the organisation in China in regards to the many disruptions and opportunities of the fast-approaching AD era. 

An 8 million inhabitant city of eastern China has been designated by the national government as an innovative smart city pilot project. Greenkern developed the “beyond the 8 square meters” concept, arguing that this pilot project represents the perfect home turf for VGC to develop, showcase, and operate a Smart City eco-system together with strong partners. This included the development of a potential business model and the definition of five work streams comprising responsibility and scope.
