Case Study: Limerick Digital Strategy
Limerick’s digital strategy will enable the development of a smart, sustainable, city and region where digital technologies improve quality of life, empower communities and enable economic growth. Limerick is the first city in Ireland to appoint a Chief Digital Officer to lead the development of a digital strategy that will lay the foundation for the Smart Limerick Region.
This initiative will invest in technology and research so that, by 2020, citizens and businesses will be better engaged in city life using digital channels, while locals and visitors will be able to access information on some 2,000 attractions, new online services provided by the Council and over 1,000 events each year in a single digital experience platform – www.limerick.ie.
