Jamie Cudden, Smart City Program Manager said:“Dublin City Council is delighted to be recognised by the Small Cell Forum for our collaboration with Dense Air. The delivery of this project was only possible through collaboration with the CONNECT research centre for future networks, local building owners and the engagement of our wider Smart Docklands partner network.

Furthermore Dublin is now providing other cities globally a template for how they can realise the future 5G opportunity.”

Paul Senior , CEO of Dense Air said “We are absolutely thrilled to have received two awards at the 2019 Small Cell Forum World Summit in London. These awards recognise Dense Air’s unique neutral host business model based on densification using small cells, and deployment and engagement we have with cities, namely Dublin City Council.”

Dublin City Council (DCC) is leading a series of innovative partnerships with world-leading technology companies through its Smart Dublin initiative. The Smart Docklands district was set up in February 2018 to deliver and fast-track smart city projects and deployments and understand the different types of connectivity and networks that would enable future cities. This was established in partnership with CONNECT, a national research centre for connectivity and future networks. Smart Docklands was a first of its kind in Ireland, where the municipality and academia have created a dedicated Project Management Office (PMO) to play an independent role amongst multiple stakeholders, from global technology companies to local residents’ groups, from academic institutions to international property developers, innovative start-ups and SMEs to fast track emerging smart city opportunities. http://smartdocklands.ie/
