美南新聞集團董事長李蔚華表示，未來的城市不只是由道路和建築物組成，更需要以科技把居民、企業、教育、醫療、媒體及公共服務連結起來。

「我們希望把這裡建設成一個真正屬於未來的智慧數位城市。透過AT&T的技術力量，加上美南新聞集團多年服務多元族裔社區的基礎，我們可以讓科技真正走進社區、服務居民、幫助企業。」

未來，雙方也將繼續研究如何將5G、人工智慧及智慧城市科技應用於商業推廣、公共安全、教育培訓、醫療健康及社區活動之中，讓這座智慧數位城市不僅展示新科技，更成為居民每天可以使用、企業可以受益、年輕人可以學習的新型社區平台。

從一座媒體廣場走向智慧數位城市，美南新聞集團正在展開新的發展篇章。AT&T團隊的加入，將為這項計畫帶來重要的科技力量，也為休斯敦國際區未來的數位化發展注入新的動能。

AT&T Team Supports Southern News Group Plaza in Building a Smart Digital City in Houston

HOUSTON — Southern News Group is moving forward with an ambitious plan to transform its plaza and surrounding area into a next-generation Smart Digital City. Recently, a professional team from AT&T visited Southern News Group Plaza for an on-site assessment and discussions on 5G connectivity, smart-city infrastructure, digital security, and future community services.

As artificial intelligence, 5G communications, and the Internet of Things continue to advance rapidly, urban development is moving beyond traditional buildings and infrastructure toward a more connected and intelligent environment.

Southern News Group plans to use its plaza and the Houston International District as a foundation for introducing high-speed communications, smart light poles, LED digital information systems, security monitoring, IoT technology, smart parking, and digital wayfinding systems. The goal is to create a Smart Digital City demonstration area that connects business, media, finance, education, health care, and community services.

The AT&T team’s visit represented more than a routine site tour. Team members reviewed the building, public spaces, and surrounding environment while discussing how AT&T’s communications technology and business solutions could help create a safer, more efficient, and more connected community.

Southern News Group Chairman Wea Lee said that the cities of the future will not be defined only by roads and buildings, but by how technology connects people, businesses, education, health care, media, and public services.

“Our vision is to build a true Smart Digital City for the future. By combining AT&T’s technology with Southern News Group’s long-standing relationship with Houston’s diverse communities, we can bring technology directly into the community, serve residents, and help local businesses grow.”

Looking ahead, Southern News Group and AT&T will continue exploring opportunities to apply 5G, artificial intelligence, and smart-city technologies to business development, public safety, workforce education, health services, and community activities.

The vision is not simply to display new technology, but to create a living digital community where residents can benefit from technology in their daily lives, businesses can become more competitive, and young people can gain the skills needed for the future.

From a media plaza to a Smart Digital City, Southern News Group is beginning a new chapter of development. The participation and support of the AT&T team bring important technological expertise to the project and new momentum to the digital transformation of Houston’s International District.
