About SCIA 11

The benchmark for Romania's smart city industry

SCIA brings together leaders from public administration, business, the diplomatic community and academia at an event that combines professional recognition with a real sense of occasion. Access is exclusive, carefully selected and limited: a meeting of the people who decide, deliver and inspire change.

The SCIA experience

More than a gala.
