Hyper-Local: Spotlight On Smart Innovative Thinking > Dominic Parra

A new kind of metropolitan leadership
Very impressed by this guy at last month's Mesa Economic Development Advisory Board meeting. It was early in the morning on Tue 03 April 2017. Few members of the public were there. District 2 Mesa City Council member Jeremy Whittaker was 'moon-lighting early' sitting way in the back of the lower level chambers with a Surface Pro4 ...as chairman of the Economic Development he's invited Dominic Parra to Today's meeting @ 4 o'clock.
If that's a better time for you to find out more about Arizona Institute For Digital Progress you encourage to participate

The Intellectual Hub for SmartCity/IoT
​Technology and Innovation in PHX
 :  Our mission is to transform the PHX region into a global hub of SmartCity/IoT technology driven by collaborative civic innovation
Mission: Real Change For Real People
The mission of the Council will be to affect REAL CHANGE FOR REAL PEOPLE through the practical application of innovative technology within our communities.  In other words, this Council is built for one thing and one thing only,
to Get Stuff Done! 

Partnerships with members of the Council and outside organizations will result in multidisciplinary teams co-creating new solutions with innovative approaches. They will work together to solve the real problems that our cities and our citizens face. These projects will occur in areas that fall under the authority of local, regional, and state governments, or as part of sector-oriented programs for the provision of services in the fields of education, health, transportation and others. The idea of these activities is to transform the PHX region into a living testbed where prototypes and concepts can be developed and tested in real urban settings. Then, once they’re proven, we will help spread them to cities across the world to improve quality of life for people everywhere. We will think Global and act Local.
