Devon and Birmingham talk up China’s new smart cities

Lord Robin Teverson, The Earl of Devon and leaders of top UK universities, join the Lord Mayor of Birmingham to unite with the committee behind one of China’s new smart cities to announce joint research and innovation projects.

The team leading the development of the Nanjing Jiangbei New Area, one of 13 new technology hubs and free trade zones in China, will be outlining plans for the latest research centre, called the ‘Nanjing Jiangbei New Area Sino-UK Innovation and Development Centre’.

In recent years, the Nanjing Jiangbei New Area committee has been working with players in the UK to develop the new centre for collaboration at both national and regional levels.
