Developing Technology For A Cleaner City

As we progress on the technology front with connected cities, connected machines and connected human beings, there’s a growing need to also be cautious on how were building the future and the damage on planet Earth. Climate change, depletion of natural resources across the globe and this rapid urbanisation have fuelled the demand for cleaner and more sustainable solutions. In Asia, Singapore plays a pivotal role as a talent hub for CleanTech test beds and solutions. We speak to Dalson Chung, Director of Industry Development and Promotion at the National Environment Agency to talk about the state of our progress in a connected world and how best to optimise smart technologies for a cleaner and better future.
