Each workshop was dedicated to a Smart City related topic: Smart Energy, Smart Mobility, Smart District and Active Neighbourhood Society. After an input speech by a member of the local Triangulum team on Smart Cities and on first ideas on a \u201csmart\u201d district in Leipzig West, the participants discussed visions and obstacles for the further smart development of the district as well as their own project ideas.
