This is the first of many in a 'Leadership Series' of interviews, as we check-in on our 2018 Australian Smart Cities Awards program winners, starting with Sunshine Coast Council in Queensland. At the 2018 awards Sunshine Coast Council picked up four awards, in the categories of Digital City Services, Regional Leadership and Smart City of the Year. Michael Whereat, Smart Cities Lead for the Council also picked up Local Government Leader. In this episode we chat with Michael on what's been happening since last year, and what's on the horizon for this smart cities stalwart.
