New visionary policies and strategic insights are necessary to tackle the diversity of city-region challenges and promote sustainability
Honored to speak at Malaysia’s NPC 2023, I shared insights on empowering smart cities for sustainable development. Highlighting Brittany’s digital twin initiatives, I emphasized data’s pivotal role in urban planning. The event, a confluence of tradition and modernity, allowed me to expand my network and advocate for collaborative, data-driven, and community-empowered urban innovation, resonating with the SDGs and local needs.
My global consultancy is now strategically aligned with the emerging framework of sustainable urban development (SUD), focusing on integrated, place-based public policies, governance, and green digital solutions. After a decade in Asia, I’m targeting the Global South, particularly Southeast Asia, with Malaysia as the operational hub. This shift underscores the need for cooperation in capacity building, where Europe and the UK can share adaptable knowledge and best practices.
As I gear up for my upcoming journey to Asia, I’m excited about the new ventures awaiting with Ker-Iz Consulting. The brand, deeply rooted in my Breton heritage and European expertise, is now pivoting towards Southeast Asia, with Malaysia set to become my regional base. This strategic move aligns with my commitment to knowledge sharing, facilitation, and capacity building—key to achieving global sustainability goals. Embracing the digital era, I’m poised to bridge Europe and Asia, fostering impactful cooperation in smart cities and mobility.
