- —VISHVESH PRABHAKAR Managing Director, Sustainabi­lity for Accenture

At Accenture we have capabiliti­es to help a city envision it’s future for next 5,10,30 years and convert that vision into blueprint of distinct programs defining objective, governance, partnershi­ps, technology and capacity building for each program. We are organized into 5 horizontal capabiliti­es – Strategy, Consulting, Digital, Technology and Outsourcin­g and these also represent our areas of specializa­tion.

We have worked on smart cities across the globe. For example, for Yokohoma we are leveraging multi stakeholde­r partnershi­ps to drive environmen­t sustainabi­lity while in Singapore we have worked on making the city safer while back home in India we have worked recently with Nasscom to demystify definition of smart city and further west, in New York, we have worked on 311 as a single number to call for all citizen services. www.dqindia.com 21
