Mr. James Chiao, CEO of Smart City Consulting Co. Ltd. and Chairman of Asian ICT Council of CACCI, participated virtually as Guest Speaker during the first day of the three-day “2022 Transformation Summit” organized by Cebu IT BMP. Organization.

Mr. Chiao, who also serves as Chairman of the Smart Cities Committee of the Chinese International Economic Cooperation Association (CIECA), spoke on the important role of smart
city solutions in shaping the future of a city, and outlined areas where Taiwan – through its links to many experts not just in the country but in other regions as well – can help in providing the right and tailor-made smart city solutions for Cebu.

At the end of the session, Cebu City Mayor Mike Rama said he would connect with Mr. Chiao to seek his assistance in making the Philippine’s second largest metropolis a Smart City just like Taipei and other cities in Taiwan.
