Global networking products major Cisco Systems aims to soon turn the Electronics City in south Bangalore into a smart city, and develop Asia's first Internet of Things (IoT) innovation hub, a top official said Wednesday. "The smart city will be built in the electronics city industrial township as a pilot project in partnership with the Electronics City Industries Association (ELCIA) to provide smart parking, smart CCTV surveillance, smart street lighting, smart water management and community messaging," Cisco president for smart and connected communities Anil Menon told reporters in Bangalore. Located 20 km from the city centre in Anekal taluk in Bangalore Urban district, the 332-acre Electronics City is one of the largest industrial parks in the country, housing global majors, multinationals and Indian iconic IT firms like Infosys and Wipro.
