PILOTS: ABOUT

CITIES AND WINNERS OF THE LLGA SHARE THE GOAL OF BRINGING THE BEST SOLUTIONS ALIVE THROUGH PILOT IMPLEMENTATIONS THAT TAKE PLACE AFTER THE AWARD CEREMONY.

Winners gain the opportunity to bring their solutions to new markets in this way, showcasing the full impact and viability of their solutions before cities take major procurement decisions.

Success stories such as CitySolver, show that piloting can accelerate the time to market from an average of 24 months to just 6 months, seamlessly connecting piloting and later roll-out stages.
