As a widely recognized and respected leader in designing silicon, software and solutions for a wide range of smart city applications, we are happy to share our expertise within the innovation ecosystem being created at the Smart City Living Labs.”

The focus for Silicon Labs is to work/develop/test solutions and products together with like minded counterparts which can then be demonstrated and showcased in the Lab. Very much looking forward to this partnership!”

The Smart City Living Lab plays a part in the Government of India’s Smart Cities Mission, a new initiative to drive economic growth and improve the quality of life of people by enabling local development and harnessing technology to create smart outcomes for citizens.
