As Smart City Expo opens its doors today, Schréder is delighted to announce the opening of its Smart City centre of excellence in Portugal - Schréder Hyperion.

At Schréder, we believe that to develop truly smart cities, we must enable vendor agnostic solutions that connect city devices to networks; contributing to the growth of a truly open technological eco-system. That is why we are delighted to announce that Schréder’s smart lighting control solution Owlet IoT is now TALQ2 certified.

Today we have launched our CIBSE-approved CPD to provide our customers and partners in supporting industries (Architects, Planners, Consultants, Contractors, etc) with an in-depth educational resource on all things lighting. We hope by collating and sharing our expertise we can make lighting more readily accessible to everyone, counter false claims and misinformation and share our knowledge on how to deliver impactful lighting schemes, protecting your wider investment and creating new experiences for our end users.

In just a few days, the second largest multi-sport event in the world, the Pan American Games 2019 will open. From 26th July to 11th August, more than 6,500 athletes from 42 countries will be competing for medals on the courts, tracks, fields and swimming pools. Schréder is proud to have delivered a range of sustainable lighting solutions that ensure perfect visibility so that the competitors can concentrate on the action while viewers at home can enjoy sharp and vivid images.

SynchroniCity is a large scale IoT pilot project to create and pilot new digital solutions that will improve city life. Our project will leverage real-time traffic data with existing street lighting infrastructure to provide added-value services in the fields of adaptive lighting, traffic optimisation, and public safety.

Schréder is pleased to support this bi-annual event once again and welcome the participants on our stand. We look forward to meeting and discussing the evolving role of light in today’s public spaces.
