Why?

This webinar is organized under the framework of the DevOps competences for Smart Cities (DevOps) project that addresses the shortage of digital and transferrable skills in the municipalities’ smart cities sector and will support this sector’s employees in their professional development.

  • What are the skills of the smart citizen of the future?
  • What is DevOps as a software development approach, and how can it be applied to Smart Cities?
