The Herndon-based Center for Innovative Technology has begun a partnership with George Washington University and a private equity company, 22 Capital Partners, to promote creation of “smart-city” technologies in Virginia.
Under the smart-city concept, sensors and analytical tools are used to make building systems and city infrastructure more efficient and responsive to the needs of businesses and residents.
The three partners plan to create an environment for smart-city entrepreneurs in a corridor stretching from Washington, D.C., to Washington Dulles International Airport.
