Smart Cities are Accelerating: Is your organization ready to capitalize?

This GlobalData whitepaper, authored by Sevra Rende (Consulting Director), addresses infrastructure pressure from rapid urbanization — noting "nearly 70% of the global population will live in cities" by 2050 — and centers on a five-layer IoT technology-stack framework spanning data collection, transmission, processing and application across urban systems. It sizes the smart-cities opportunity at "$417 billion by 2028" with a "15.3%" five-year CAGR, and argues that mastering the IoT stack and pursuing innovation leadership is "key to maximizing advantage" in this market.

GlobalData is a pipeline, clinical-trial and market-intelligence data provider, similar in kind to Cortellis, tracking hundreds of thousands of drugs across their full lifecycle.

This sits in the Data Providers stage of the AI use-case lifecycle: Named examples from the real-world-data, claims and competitive-intelligence providers pharma AI systems are trained on, benchmarked against, or run inside of.
