After more than eight years of development and innovation in smart cities, Bciti+ is taking a major new step by announcing a strategic alliance with the Memphrémagog Chamber of Commerce (CCM) and the écoLocal feature integrated into bciti+.
Since its inception, Bciti, a 100% Quebec-based and Canadian company, has helped cities simplify and centralize access to civic services for citizens. With this new alliance, Bciti is now extending its impact by integrating local economic players through écoLocal, a feature designed to stimulate local commerce while promoting an eco-friendly transition focused on regional proximity. écoLocal is set to officially launch in early March.
"With écoLocal, we go beyond the concept of a smart city by creating a true digital ecosystem that fosters proximity, local consumption, and engagement between citizens, merchants, and local organizations. This alliance with the Memphrémagog Chamber of Commerce is a natural and essential step in realizing this vision."
– Vivianne Gravel, President and Founder of Bciti+
Inspired by emerging technologies and best practices in digital commerce, écoLocal functions as a "Marketplace of a social network" integrated into the bciti+ platform, offering both businesses and citizens a simplified one-stop access to daily services and exclusive benefits.
By unifying urban services with relevant, personalized, and contextualized commercial offers on a single platform, écoLocal represents a new generation of smart solutions built on collaboration and proximity.
"This alliance with Bciti+ provides local businesses with increased visibility and direct access to citizens while supporting the economic vitality of our region. écoLocal represents an outstanding opportunity for our members."
– Roxanne Fréchette, President of the Memphrémagog Chamber of Commerce
