It was a really good experience. It was amazing, the size of the event and also the amount of information that you can see all the technologies that are developing right now applying to the city. It's also the speakers, everything was really amazing to learn to see how every country is moving forward in terms in terms of the smart cities.

For me, going to the Smart City Expo World Congress was really cool because I got to connect with many different stakeholders of the ecosystem and generally just find out how the whole mobility system is transitioning, what different players have on their agenda, and what the future is going to hold.

It was a great expo and conference; I really enjoyed the programs and the possibility of visiting a lot of the stands at the expo. It was also a fantastic experience for networking.
What did you like best about the event?
It was very well organized, and the information flow was great before and during the event. I liked very much the opportunity to connect with many people.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
I think the organization was great. I think more food options to avoid long queues could improve the experience. More rooms for more sessions to cover more topics would also be welcome.

Relevant event for operators in the industry
What did you like best about the event?
We really liked that the event was very vertical and focused only on a few key aspects and industries. There was not much noise around it. It's easy to network with the participants.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
It's already okay, and I would not add much to the event. They should keep the event size quite small and exclusive.

From Portugal to the World (Congress of Smart Cities) - the ninth time Ubiwhere participates.
What did you like best about the event?
Exhibiting in a central place, networking with potential customers and partners, speaking in very interesting sessions, organizing parties in our stand, and having fun with friends.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Security - Our stand was robbed during the event's party, and we know others were also robbed on the last morning of the Expo. It makes us feel very uncomfortable with the organization's safety measures.

Highly valuable and very interesting - could use more room for collaboration and community.
What did you like best about the event?
I really loved the sheer size of it and the strong representation of cities and government. I also loved the attention to innovative tendering methods and some very interesting speakers and platforms. Personally, I had a very good experience with the Tomorrow.BlueEconomy section, and I would love to see that grow next year.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Both the app and the live-size maps did not provide much insight into the exact location of specific stands—integration of the different online environments for SDEWC, the Tomorrow. Events and the Challenges by Accio would also be very welcome to avoid constantly switching interfaces. Or integration with Google / Outlook calendars, that would already help with planning out speakers events, etc.

Great organization and excellent curation of topics and sessions.
What did you like best about the event?
The way it was structured and the fact that every edition is growing bigger and better.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Perhaps streamline the preparation of sessions for events a bit more. There was lost time between preps and the actual participation as a speaker.

It was an excellent place to see the future of the cities.
What did you like best about the event?
I liked that there was a place to think, discuss, see other's ideas, and share knowledge of how we all should be conscious about the future.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
A better plan in the app is a way to organize what you would like to see. There is so much information that I had to put in my calendar, so if the app can have that option, it would be easier.

Excellent participation and dissemination of main outcomes of AUVE in an international congress.
What did you like best about the event?
Huge, innovative, and crowded event. Different topics, a lot of speakers, a massive scenario.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
There were a lot of conferences and speakers running at the same time. On the other hand, there was a large audience. Online transmission of all side events would be ideal.

A good experience, a lot of knowledge.
What did you like best about the event?
Many products, many solutions. The place is big and comfortable. It was close to hotels.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The price of the ticket, the entire congress pass, is very expensive. Maybe you can sort the stands by technology.

Many different stakeholders, potential partners, and also many partakers from the government/city side.

Provide more space for networking and talking to people, and prevent stage noise from many stages from overlapping and interfering with talks at stands nearby.
