In the United States, Telosa, the visionary urban prototype conceptualized by billionaire Marc Lore, aims tomarry cutting-edge AI with a radical social-economic philosophy called equitism.Every aspect—from land governance to transport to resource distribution—is being designed to learn from its residents and evolve with their needs.Likewise,  From sentiment-aware traffic control to AI-powered elder care, is the idea behind Seoul, South Korea,and must to mention, $500 billion NEOM With a city like The Line,NEOM proposes a zero-carbon, AI-embedded vertical urban corridor where human experience is optimized by predictive intelligence, of KSA. These are all next generation, Cognitive smart cities.

We must be careful not to confuse a smart city with a cognitive one—they serve distinct roles in the future of urban living." they are fundamentally different in purpose, intelligence, and impact."

The distinction between a smart city and a cognitive smart city is crucial. A smart city, for instance, might use sensors to monitor traffic flow and adjust traffic lights in real-time. A cognitive city, however, would analyse historical traffic data, weather patterns, local events, and even social media sentiment to predict potential congestion hours in advance and proactively suggest alternative routes or optimize public transport schedules.

Meer Group’s Cognitive City Vision

With deep capabilities across real estate,automotive, EV technology, digital finance, healthcare, and green infrastructure, Meer Group is uniquely positioned to architect and animate the cognitive city model. We believe that investing in the transition to cognitive smart cities is not just about urban development; it's about investing in the future.

Our Idea is to have innovative use of IOT sensors and open data initiatives. The city's smart lighting system that adjusts illumination based on pedestrian presence, while its smart parking app guides drivers to available spaces, reducing traffic congestion as that of Barcelona.We aim to built the world's first carbon-neutral city.

Data, AI and next-gen infrastructure with proper controls related to privacy, data sharing and the ethical use of emerging technologies to gain trust of residents is our focus. Meer Group wants to achieve AI-managed food waste reduction. data insights to optimise food production and distribution, reducing food waste, and its environmental and economic impact. The use of AI and data analysis to capture and interpret customer feedback from multiple channels, providing insights to enhance products and services. Intelligent emergency response systems and drones andAI-powered video surveillance for security and safety.

In Healthcare, Epidemics monitoring which gathers data on patients, predicts behaviour, and enables preventive action in hospitals, such as isolation plans and remote treatment will change the outlook towards healthcare in our cognitive city.

The manifestation of our vision

Our ambition is not confined to construction or capital—it is civilizational.Meer Group is creating environments that think, economies that evolve, and experiences that elevate. Investing in a cognitive city is not merely participation in real estate or technology—it is a stake in the next civilization model. These cities are poised to become global epicentres of capital, creativity, and consciousness.

We invite discerning investors, visionary partners, and global stakeholders to join us at the inflection point between innovation and intention. Together, we are not just building cities. We are shaping sentient, sustainable futures.
