Citibeats' ethical AI makes helps governments interpret the huge quantity of data exchanged every day by citizens in real time, understand their needs, and make faster and better-informed decisions.

Digitalization is key to the present and future of local commerce in any city. For digitalization to be effective, it must be personalized, thinking about the uniqueness of commerce, connected with the local and with the world to achieve greater competitiveness.
