Mission
We want to promote sustainability and inclusion.
The rapid scientific and technological growth of the last 50 years has allowed the affirmation of knowledge as an indispensable economic resource for the development of countries, regions and cities. Although with different rhythms, all economies are moving towards being based on activities in which knowledge is their main differentiating factor.
Knowledge, as a strategic resource and the development of public and private initiatives leading to its valorisation and promotion, is a unique element of the last decades, namely in terms of urban planning.
This context created a favorable environment for The Pitroda Group to move forward with the development of the “Knowledge City”. This is a city that is defined by the creation of an innovation district, which is part of a space of great urban and environmental quality.
“Today, we continue with our minds stuck in the past. We need to use technology to redesign everything around us”.
– Sam Pitroda
