Business Green, February 23, 2015
Canary Wharf’s plan to pilot a host of smart technologies have taken another step forward today, as the company’s Cognicity Challenge announced that 12 more clean tech firms have been selected to take part in the initiative.
Launched last year, Canary Wharf Group’s Cognicity Challenge will select 36 clean tech start-ups across six streams, which will compete for funding and the chance to trial their smart city technology on the Canary Wharf estate.
The short-listed firms for the two streams – Sustainable Buildings and Integrated Transportation – were announced last month, and today sees confirmation of the companies selected to take part in the Integrated Resource Management and Automated Building Management streams.
