Microsoft CityNext Update
Wattblock attended Microsoft's CityNext update for the Asia Pacific region this week. This featured Microsoft's GM, Rob Bernard, with the key theme of driving sustainability in cities using the cloud and data analytics. We are also engaging with Microsoft on the best way to mobilize local universities as partners for the CityNext smart cities program.
Solar Update
With our first referral for PV solar installation now complete, Wattblock is ramping up its solar data analytics. We have further engagement with two more strata committees to evaluate the benefits of renewable energy for their common areas.
