VISION
Urban areas are melting pots of new opportunities. It are places where people meet, live, work and enjoy their spare time. It's an area where a known past will meet up with an unknown future.
People are eager to adopt services and products which make their life, work, spare time more enjoyable, more efficient. They are eager to adopt products and services which make them more resilient to future, unknown events.
Smart Systems can enable those products and services but cooperation between policy makers, citizens, technology experts and other stakeholders is required to realize new solutions for citizens in urban areas.
Facilitation is needed to bring experts from different disciplines and different regions together and to make them cooperate on smart system enabled products and services for urban areas.
MISSION
The mission of the SmartCityTech partnership is to facilitate global cooperation between city stakeholders aiming at the development and realization of innovative value models for urban areas enabled by smart systems.

Driving application of smart systems in urban areas forward requires a structured activity plan. The SmartCityTech partners are currently finalizing a joint action plan which will be the basis for SmartCityTech activities. Keep on following smartcitytech to learn more about the added value SmartCityTech will offer you.
Starting with the current members, we will look for additional partners to extend the scope of the European Strategy Cluster Partnerships (ESCP), and formalise the extended partnership. This extension will be both geographic and thematic, because the ESCP will not only look at Embedded Technologies but at both the Embedded Technologies and those that complement them to obtain complete Smart Cities ICT-based systems (including the backend data platforms that aggregate, analyse and act upon the sensor information).
It will also be important that the additional partners are actively involved in concrete challenges and applications in the Smart Cities domain to ensure optimal coverage of the global value chains.

Companies developing solutions in Smart City need testbeds for their solutions. One of the best ways to test solutions and accelerate the "go to market" process can be the use of living labs.
