Lake Nona | The Smart Digital District

The IBcon Smart Building Best Practice Showcase is an annual event held at the Realcomm | IBcon conference where real estate leaders present their most innovative, technology driven commercial and corporate real estate projects. These projects demonstrate leading-edge technologies and vision for intelligent and adaptive design that is transforming the next generation of IT-enabled real estate. The Weekly News Briefing will feature a unique Showcase project each week.
Located next to the Orlando International Airport in Florida, Lake Nona is a world-class digital district planned and developed by the Tavistock Group, whose vision includes creating globally recognized clusters of excellence in health and well-being, sports and performance, education, and aerospace/aviation.
Lake Nona’s advanced infrastructure and commitment to collaboration has attracted visionary companies and startups from across the globe to join and turn cutting-edge ideas into realities. The community’s “living lab” entrepreneurial environment allows companies to test and deploy transformative technology at-scale in a real-world setting. Both physically and virtually, Orlando is the most visited city in the United States and is one of the most connected mobility sites in the country. With an extensive roster of technology partners, Lake Nona shines as a future-facing community built on sustainability, integrated technology, and well-being by design.
