The Nava Raipur Smart City: Quality of life, smart growth, and city resilience
“We selected AVEVA as our ICT partner because we felt they had the experience, expertise, technology, and knowledge to fit with our Smart City vision. We had engaged PwC as a consultant and asked them to work with us to develop our plan. They created a tender for a technology partner, and AVEVA was the best bid for our needs. As we look to the future, we are confident that AVEVA has the software technology we need to scale and grow our operations capabilities, enabling us to support the development of Nava Raipur as a Smart City hub for Chhattisgarh.”
