Smart Cities: Funding, Deployment Strategies, and Business Models

This report mainly focuses on funding and deployment strategies for smart city projects and programs. It looks into key smart city challenges, including financing, optimization of available budgets, implementation, and the leverage of existing platforms and infrastructure. This report describes how incremental approaches based on smart funding, the replication of projects, the reuse of technology deployments for a wider range of use cases and applications, citizen participation, crowdsourcing of mobile sensor data, and the stimulation of the overall sharing economy for mobility, energy, accommodation, and communication allow any city to become smart, regardless of its current situation.
