IE A&D @ the Smart City Expo World Congress
|
|
Cities are centers for innovation, culture and learning and, IE School of Architecture and Design, aware of this, took part at the Smart City Expo World Congress hosted in Barcelona from November 13-15.
The exhibition and congress provided a venue for all smart city sectors and an innovative forum to debate urban action worldwide. This year's edition concentrated on five main topics responding to the key issues facing cities: Digital Transformation, Urban Environment, Mobility, Governance & Finance, and Inclusive & Sharing Cities.
Martha Thorne, Dean of our School interviewed the Mayor Rafael Greca of Curitiba, Brazil, as they talked about transforming cities through public space and green districts. For several decades, Curitiba has been at the forefront of innovative ideas for creating innovative solutions for mobility, smart development, and the environment.
The Students of the Master in Real Estate Development attended the same congress as part of the agenda of their first trip within the program. They learned about the strategic features of the model of the city itself, that combines transformation with economic development and social consensus. Their visit included sites such as 22@ Barcelona, Diagonal Mar, and Barcelona El Prat airport.

Marina Carretero, Lighting Designer @ Arup
|
|
Marina Carretero a native of Segovia, has already experienced many different countries during her academic and professional career. The Internship Program while studying the IE Bachelor in Architecture took her to Madrid, Berlin and Mumbai.
Architects, even though involved in design and construction can fulfill a variety of roles. Marina's training and skills landed her to a first job as a lighting designer at Arup in the Manchester UK office. Arup, which began as an engineering firm continues today as one the leading engineering firms in the world, but has also expanded to provide design, planning, project management and consulting services for all aspects of the built environment.

|
Today Marina has moved up and moved back to Spain to continue her career as a lighting designer at the Madrid office of Arup. “I love how, in lighting design, one day we can be super creative and the next hour we need to do a super precise glare and daylight calculation. This swift shift between the creative and the technical keeps me motivated!”
