Welcome members — old and new — to our first quarterly newsletter. In each edition, we’ll dig into a specific smart connected vertical, starting with smart lighting. There’s never been more demand for technology to digitally transform smart connected spaces, and we’re excited to introduce you to new opportunities, and together, help this robust ecosystem grow and prosper.

There are between 300 and 360 million street lights worldwide. Adding connectivity and other innovative technology changes the game — energy consumption is reduced, maintenance gets easier, and they can even provide critical information on traffic, road conditions, enhanced public safety and more. Here’s what’s happening in smart lighting right now, from our smart lighting business lead, Hari Garlapati, and two of our Smart Cities Accelerator members.

While currently distanced, we’re looking forward to bringing together our Qualcomm Smart Cities Accelerator members, thought leaders, and practitioners from around the world. With that in mind, we’re tracking to host our 2nd Annual Qualcomm Smart Cities Accelerate in December. It’s a time to explore the most recent technology advances, business models, and lessons that can make the Smart Connected Cities and Connected Spaces a reality, and — health and safety permitting — we’d love to see you there. Stay tuned for updates.
