The #Roma5G project is also designed with respect for environmental sustainabilitybeing based on the small-cell system which provides reduced energy consumption and low electromagnetic emissions.
The project will allow Roma Capitale to equip itself with a technological infrastructure attractive to businesses, new services for citizens and tourists and to become a true Smart City. With this modernization intervention, the aim is to have full connectivity in all the key points of the City, to increase public safety thanks to video surveillance systems and to enable a large portfolio of digital services, including free Wi-Fi and environmental control sensors at high traffic points.
Thanks to the consolidated experience developed over the last 20 years in the metropolitan area of the Municipality of Rome and more recently in the gray areas of Lazio and Puglia, Unidata will have the opportunity to actively contribute to the project by making its know-how available for the creation of digital infrastructures for the City.
Renato Brunetti, President and CEO of Unidatasaid: “We are particularly proud to be part of the team of companies that is called upon to leave its mark on the digital evolution of the city and related services to citizens. We aim to welcome the millions of visitors who will join us on the occasion of the 2025 Jubilee, with services that will facilitate mobility and the tourist experience and guarantee everyone’s safety. It will be a great opportunity to further use and enhance the large fiber optic network that we have built in recent years.”
