SMART City and Digital Revolution

Summary

Todays’ cities and regions have already stepped into the era of digitalization. The experience of the leading countries of the Fifth Industrial Revolution shows that intelligent machines, neural networks, artificial intelligence develop when there is an innovation-friendly environment and talent, when ecosystems are built for smart future cities with e-governments, intelligent transport systems, smart homes and open comfortable public spaces, convenient online services, electronic voting systems and active public participation in the form of the information society. And digitalization creates a lot of new business opportunities, for networking not only People, but also Things.

But will the digitalization process only favor the interests of technology, business and government - or will it be an open and understandable process, regulated by numerous stakeholders? And how can we make use of Big Data, digital technologies for economic growth, without harming nature and for the benefit of the inhabitants of cities and regions?
