The aim of the "Swiss Smart City Outreach (SSCO)" project is to promote the implementation of smart city initiatives, primarily in the canton of Zurich, by providing information, knowledge transfer and networking, thereby contributing to the development of smart, sustainable cities and municipalities in Switzerland. Information on smart city developments in Switzerland and on successful smart city solutions is to be made visible to the various stakeholder groups and their use promoted as a basis for decision-making for the development and implementation of SC activities. In addition to the reference projects collected as part of the Smart City Survey, the aim is also to highlight and present particularly innovative solutions with a Smart City connection, such as the ongoing DIZH project: "Design your city: a virtual reality experience for sustainable urban spaces".
