“This MOU is a key stepping stone for the realization of the ‘Padang Pariaman Smart City Implementation Project,” said Drs. H. Ali Mukhni, Regent of Padang Pariaman. “We are seeing increasing internet and smartphone penetration in the population due to urbanization in our Regency, and it is vital for us to drive IoT technology adoption at the public policy level to connect with our people and understand their needs. We chose to partner with Dassault Systèmes for its collaborative approach and deep experience in smart city projects.”
“We are very excited about partnering with Padang Parliament's leaders who share our vision for sustainable smart city planning,” continued Masaki Sox Konno, Managing Director, Asia Pacific South, Dassault Systèmes. “Smart city management is about understanding the local character of the city concerning its environment and being able to customize the technology for these unique requirements.
