Caravana Smart City 2026

Agenda

How a Caravana Smart City 2026 day runs: opening, two practical panels, two integrated demos, case studies and a networking lunch. The same format at all five events.

One compact day of practical panels, integrated demos and case studies

The programme is built to give public administrations and industry as much time as possible for real dialogue. No long product presentations, no string of pitches - the focus stays on the project.

09:00 - 09:30

Welcome and networking

Registration, coffee, conversations between public administrations and partners.

09:30 - 09:50

Official opening

ARSC, the local host, an institutional partner. A short message: from funding to implementation.

09:50 - 10:45

Panel 1 - From funding to tender

Funding, administration and local energy projects: what needs to be clear before the tender is launched. The host mayor or county council president, a representative of a central institution / funder / ADR (Regional Development Agency) / AFM (the Environment Fund Administration), a mayor with a relevant signed project, the main partner, an ARSC expert.

10:45 - 11:00

Integrated demo 1

"Anatomy of a smart energy project - what a city hall needs to know before the tender is launched." A project's path: audit, consumption analysis, choice of solution, data integration, minimum requirements for the tender specifications.

11:00 - 12:00

Panel 2 - Solutions and technologies

Solutions, technologies and implementation models for energy-efficient administrations. Partner talks (3 × 7 min), response from the administration (10 min), moderated discussion (15 min), conclusions - 5 recommendations for local administrative units before procurement.

12:00 - 12:15

Integrated demo 2

A second technical demo, run by another partner. The same structure as Demo 1, applied to a different solution: from the administration's specific need to implementation, integration with existing data and minimum requirements for the tender specifications.

12:15 - 12:50

Quick case studies

3 talks of 8-10 minutes each: administration + supplier / a real project.

12:50 - 13:00

Conclusions and next steps

ARSC summary, an invitation to public administrations to continue the technical dialogue and to partners to get involved in the series.

13:00
