Augmented City

We augment the way our cities and citizens use time and space, improving the overall quality of life for all city actors by delivering sustainable economic and financial project & service patterns.

Engineering for  "Augmented City" aims to increase the use of time and space of a city and its citizens, through the use of technology aimed at improving the quality of life and work of all the actors in the city. To this end, Engineering operates in the urban area on the various sectors involved in the digital transformation of a city, from energy to transport, from security to governance (e.g. knowledge system, digitalization of municipal processes, etc.).

In our Portfolio Map, we have collected our competences in 5 areas that can improve our cities and the quality of life of their citizens.

From Smart City to Augmented City: synergy between Public and Private sectors for citizen-centric services

The way we use time and space, the environment, and resources within cities determines our quality of life and forms the basis for the sustainability of our existence in the medium and long term. Therefore, we need to design public services that are tailored to the city and its citizens, services that do not deplete resources but instead are fueled by their continuous regeneration and optimization, with interventions that are economically and financially self-sustaining.

As change accelerators, we transform individual initiatives into opportunities to improve the quality of life in urban centers, enable savings for the government, and simplify the relationship between public administration and citizens by focusing on five fundamental pillars of a single technological ecosystem: Sustainability, Security, Mobility, Interactivity, and Welfare.
