Madrid innovation seeks to reach citizen services
Five startups from the Comunidad de Madrid are bringing proposals to the Singularity Summit Spain 2026 to modernise cities with technology applied to mobility, energy, health, and robotics. The forum is part of Madrid Tech Week.
The Auditorio de Espacio Acciona hosted the opening of the forum on Wednesday under the theme Next Move. Among the proposals featured at the event are those from five startups from the Comunidad de Madrid, selected to present urban solutions.
These companies are working on applications to modernise cities in areas such as mobility, energy, health, and robotics. Their participation brings visibility to projects aiming to address urban challenges through technology.
Miguel López-Valverde, councillor for Digitalisation of the Comunidad de Madrid, stated during the opening that technological advances must be translated into concrete solutions for citizens. He also pointed out that public administrations should turn innovation into better services and new opportunities for citizens and businesses.
The Singularity Summit Spain 2026 is part of Madrid Tech Week, which brings together activities focused on digital transformation and technological innovation. The urban dimension of the event connects with the municipal innovation model that Las Rozas presented at the Smart City Expo World Congress de Barcelona.
Artificial intelligence plays a central role in the programme due to its potential to transform public management and business models. Its possible impact on the functioning of cities is also being addressed.
