A major step towards a greener and more digital future was taken today! Alternate Minister of National Economy and Finance, Nikos Papathanasis, signed the funding contract for the “Smart Cities: Smart solutions for resilient low-pollution cities” project.
Supported by the Interreg IPA VI-A “Greece – Albania 2021-2027” programme, this €1,94 million initiative focuses on sustainable mobility and cutting-edge technology to improve air quality and daily life in our cities.
What to expect:
