Ok, I watched the video . . . so what is it? Features? When? What "digital services"? Etc.
Hey Cary,
I'm not the expert on this, but you can find more info here: https://enterprise.microsoft.com/en-us/industries/citynext/
In general, it's a solutions program to help cities bring together their existing IT infrastructure and help prepare them for the future to be more sustainable, efficient, drive innovation, develop interoperability, etc. I believe a city can work with Microsoft directly or through a partner. It's been a program for a couple of years.
