TOMI technology to equip Porto’s Digital Commercial Neighborhood

TOMI won the tender for the installation of equipment in Porto’s Digital Commercial Neighborhood, under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR). The project, currently in the preparation phase, will provide the city with innovative technological solutions through the installation of TOMIs and TOMI Lockers. The goal is to support the modernization and digitization of local commerce, strengthening the proximity between merchants, consumers, and tourists, and contributing to the revitalization of the city’s economy. The equipment in question is TOMI’s and TOMI Lockers, developed by TOMI. TOMI’s are distinguished by their ability to provide information and services in real time, in an interactive, multilingual, inclusive, and accessible way. They allow users to consult local commerce, events, and activities in the city, collect, classify, and provide individual and correlated audience and interaction data through TOMI Analytics, as well as providing local news, itineraries, and collections, conducting surveys through TOMI Survey, and a module that allows users to take photos and GIFs. TOMI Lockers allow for the delivery and collection of parcels in the neighborhood’s commercial and residential ecosystem in a practical and secure manner, available 24 hours a day. This equipment also offers a major advantage: it allows people to have an address outside their home. This means that it is no longer necessary to be at home to receive parcels—simply choose a TOMI Locker for delivery and collect your parcel at any time. In addition, the Lockers also allow drawers to be rented for storing items, providing convenience and flexibility for residents, visitors, and merchants. The implementation of these solutions in Porto’s Digital Commercial District represents an important step towards the digital transformation of local commerce. The project aims to offer new forms of interaction between the community and commerce, making it more accessible, attractive, and innovative. With this initiative, TOMI reinforces its commitment to contributing to the digital transition of territories through solutions that combine technology, proximity, and innovation. 📷 Porto Cidadania Portuguesa Other articles: TOMI to boost Nazaré’s Digital Commercial Neighborhood TOMI is implementing Coimbra’s Digital Commercial Neighborhood Baião’s Digital Commercial Neighborhood is now active with TOMI technology
