Build a city focused on the knowledge and innovation economy.
Knowledge has been recognized as the driving force of the 21st century, but how can we benefit from this access in order to protect the planet and people?
To promote systemic transformation, it is necessary that everyone has access to knowledge through:
- Better education systems;
- Better research, development and innovation structures;
- Better use of urban spaces, promoting collaboration and social integration;
- Use of the advantages of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) and IoT (Internet of Things) to accelerate the necessary and urgent changes. These should not serve to increase the efficiency of obsolete models.
The Knowledge City, developed by The Pitroda Group, fits into these lines, taking a step forward in the concept of economic development based on knowledge and services with high added value.
This is a project that aims to create an environment of innovation and knowledge exchange between different economic, social, cultural and teaching / research agents, in a space geographically designed for this purpose.
The 5 pillars of the Knowledge City
Setúbal Knowledge City is based on five pillars, which must always be interconnected in order to maximize their benefits.
