NSW Business Chamber to host 200 business leaders at innovation summit to discuss transforming the C

NSW Business Chamber will host 200 business leaders at an innovation summit to discuss how to transform the Central Coast into a cutting edge, digital ready 'smart city'.

"Being a 'smart city' isn't just pie-in the sky nonsense or jargon," Paula Martin, the NSW Business Chamber Central Coast regional director, said.

"It's a practical strategy to help boost growth, jobs and prosperity for all Coasties - and it's a strategy that our council and all levels of government need to embrace.

"The 'smart' part is in making sure we use recent, and substantial, advances in technology to do this. That's what our innovation summit is going to be about."

The summit will be held at Mingara Recreation Club, Tumbi Umbi, on Thursday, August 8.
