ParraConnect is about connecting with people to develop new digital initiatives. It’s about working with the community to gather ideas that foster innovation, connectivity and accessibility in order to develop cutting-edge technologies – and turn them into reality.
If you have an idea that contributes to these goals, we encourage you to share it with us. If you’re idea contributes to Council’s goal of becoming a connected and smart City, we are ready and willing to work with you to bring this idea into fruition.
