CFO Australia: Smart Cities and the CFO
|
|
|
Delos Delta MD, Brook Dixon, was recently interviewed for an article in CFO Australia – “Smart Cities and the CFO”.
“There’s no doubt, smart tech will destroy some jobs, but it will create new jobs – jobs we can’t predict or imagine today. Smart tech supported by smart planning and policy will guarantee plenty of jobs, better working conditions, and the ability to share prosperity.” - Brook Dixon
The piece shines a light on the future of Australia during and post COVID-19, and the leading role that smart city solutions, co-design and strategic planning will play.
