Nuovi e affascinanti esempi sull’innovazione nelle città che provengono dal mondo reale. Ogni parte del mondo industrializzato ha un caso di smart city da mostrare: città e reti di città saranno il punto di contatto delle più importanti iniziative economiche e finanziarie nel prossimo futuro. Il catalogo ampio di città analizzato da una sintetica rappresentazione delle misure applicate da alcune di esse negli ultimi dieci anni nel mondo. Essere una smart city è una sfida difficile da raggiungere, sia per città progettate ex novo come Masdar o Caofedian sia per quelle che hanno una lunga storia dietro, come le città europee.

Abstract

New and fascinating examples about innovation in cities come from the real world. Every part of the industrialized world has indeed at least one case to show. But it is not just a matter of appearance, emerging economies may take the lead in the global economy growth forecast, but many studies show that the established top cities will continue to draw the wealthy for some years to come. Cities and network of cities will be the crossing point of the most important economic and financial initiatives. The catalogue of cities analysed in this section gives a synthetic representation of the measures carried out by some benchmark cities in the last ten years all over the world. Being a smart city is quite a complex goal to reach, both for cities to be designed ex novo (such as Masdar in the Arab Emirates or Caofeidian in Asia) as we will see at the end of the chapter, and for cities which have a long history behind them. Ex novo cities are also called top-down smart cities, while most of the examples reported next are bottom-up smart cities, that is, they start from existing settlements with different preconditions.
