Quezon City is set to host the Smart Sustainable Cities Summit scheduled 17-19 October 2018.
Mayor Herbert Bautista said, Quezon City was chosen to host the annual executive meeting for being an active member of the World Smart Sustainable Cities Organization, an international organization of cities and local governments that pursues sustainable urban development based on e-Government and ICT.
Bautista said Smart Sustainable Cities Summit will be participated in by highly urbanized, independent, component cities and is expected to give member-cities and stakeholders the opportunity to explore its global network and gain exposure to a diverse array of e-government facilities and policies.
In preparation for the event, Bautista issued Office Order 3-2018 creating a steering committee and a technical working committee tasked to plan, administer, implement, monitor and evaluate all activities for an efficient, effective and secure conduct of the Summit.
City Administrator Aldrin C. Cuna will chair the steering committee with Reynald Paul Imjada, head of the Quezon City Information Technology Development Office, as co-chairperson.
Named members of the steering committee are: Chief Supt. Guillermo Lorenzo T. Eleazar, director of the Quezon City Police District; Regina Samson, head of the QC Investments Promotions Office; Ares P.
