Description

The Central Denmark Regional Authority will establish a broad regional initiative, “Smart Region”, as a way to organise public services more efficiently and create a more open and participative public sector as a driver for innovation. The initiative aims to create new ways of co-operation between companies, knowledge institutions, the public administration, and the citizens in order to support the development of creative ICT-based solutions to solve societal challenges and turn them into tomorrow’s business opportunities for the region’s companies, and new opportunities for citizens.
