Wavre, soon to be a true smart city of Europe
Flexible and reliable connectivity lies at the foot of every successful city and organization. Thanks to CONNECTOW, creating a fifth gen communications network, we are helping to further develop Wavre into an even more innovative, energy efficient and greener city. With the inhabitants in the first place. Now that's smart!
CONNECTOW gives the city of Wavre the opportunity to provide affordable, and in some places even free, connectivity for the needy, schools, entrepreneurs, aid and government services. This puts the city of Wavre on the international map as a truly smart city.
The dreams of the children
With curiosity, we encouraged the youth of Wavre to share their dreams and hopes for how they imagine the future of their town. With the help of Dubois Vincent, these dreams are drawn out.
stronger together, CONNECTOW together
Wavre
Together with the + 35,000 residents who call Wavre their home, aid and public services and economic partners, with CONNECTOW, we make Wavre the center of innovation.
Citymesh
Citymesh supplies the city of Wavre with the digital solutions we need to complete the transformation into a genuine smart city.
EU
With the "EU's Connecting Europe Facility (CEF)" project, the European Union is shaping the digital future of Europe and Wavre. And vice versa, the project is one of the first to shape Europe’s new digital society.
Building the city of the future is not something you do alone.
The process
Just like Rome, CONNECTOW was not built in a day. The project will take shape in several stages over a period of thirty-six months, under the supervision of the European Union. As smart city pioneers with transparency as one of our core values, we are happy to share every step we take. Follow our progress here.
No technology, no CONNECTOW
We could never accomplish all these great projects without the latest technology. Many benefits we owe to 5G communications technology, the logical next step in connectivity.
