Victor and I want to be in touch because we are looking to bring some part-time help to our Smart Cities for All<http://smartcities4all.org/> global initiative and we are wondering if anyone in your network might be interested.  We are contacting some of our academic colleagues globally because we think the position could be excellent for a current of recent graduate student.

This next Smart City for All tool is already generating a good deal of interest worldwide and we see it as core to making real progress in ensuring that the $1.5 trillion smart city technology market includes a focus on accessibility and the digital inclusion of persons with disabilities and older persons.  If you know of anyone who might be interested, let us know and please send them our way.
