What is the impact of digitalization on cities and how can it help reach sustainability goals and the SDG's?

How do the themes of the Floriade (i.e. feeding the city) support these themes? What is the relevance of the Dutch mission towards the Smart City Expo and why should you be part of this amazing Dutch group?
