City authorities must also use their political will to mandate - via regulation - the use of smart technologies while safeguarding citizens. Issues around liability, security and privacy need to be addressed through comprehensive regulatory frameworks. PublicPrivate Partnerships (PPP) are key to build and operate both physical and digital infrastructure, especially given continually tightening civic budgets and enormous infrastructural requirements.

Leveraging various technologies to create innovative solutions which are then applied to manage services that improve the quality of life for its citizens. A combination of urban planning, environment, IT, transport, and infrastructure has helped create a city where citizens can connect to the work network from a public park, and then meet a friend for coffee or shopping.

Tourists should find everything such as bus schedules, nearby restaurants and entertainment, at touchscreen kiosks conveniently located around the city. Finding and reserving a parking space is possible through a smartphone and city workers can monitor parking meters, streetlights, and even garbage bins over the network instead of driving around and consuming fuel.

critical investments are needed in healthcare (remote health, elderly care), health information exchange, and telehealth. Evidence strongly suggests that implementing Information and Communications technologies (ICT) can result in higher quality and safer, more patientresponsive healthcare. Mobile collaboration technologies and BYOD for example can be useful in delivery of better health outcomes.
