Smart Cities Tourism & Entertainment

Tourism is beneficial to cities as it contributes to the economy, increases employment levels and creates a broad customer base for city businesses, such as retail and restaurants. At the same time, as visitor numbers grow, effective crowd management services are needed in areas such as public transportation and popular tourist attractions. Within the entertainment industry, large events, such as music festivals and sporting matches, can all benefit from new technologies such as smart ticketing and security services.
