Dear associate,

At our recent Board of Directors meeting on May 19th, a unanimous decision was made to entrust me with the responsibility of presiding over our shared cluster.

I want to begin by expressing my deepest gratitude to you and all those who contribute to this community dedicated to the development of smart and sustainable cities. Embracing collective intelligence is truly commendable, both for its extraordinary nature within the competitive business landscape and for the remarkable results we have achieved together over time.

Over the course of its nine-year existence, the Smart City Cluster has undergone a notable evolution. What began as a gathering point for technological companies has transformed into a national reference for various aspects, including promoting the Circular Economy, setting up the definition of the new Smart Territories, or public aid to the A.E.I.s. However, we mustn’t become complacent. As an associate of this innovative cluster, you are well aware of the rapid and unstoppable changes taking place.

Individually, we all strive to respond swiftly and act dynamically within this evolving context. From the outset, my goal as president will be to ensure that our association’s movements are agile, facilitating the circulation of ideas, experiences, and inspiration that we hold within.

While there are moments where progress may seem faster when going solo, as the proverb goes, “if you want to go far, go together.” I firmly believe that each member of our cluster contributes to our collective success. It is my intention to embrace change proactively, ensuring that you and all future members feel they are in the right place to contribute and receive the best opportunities.

I eagerly anticipate the day when we can discuss these matters face-to-face.

Until then, please accept my warmest regards.
