It explores how successful smart cities initiatives nurture both technological and social innovation using a combination of regulatory governance and private agency. Typologies of smart city-making approaches are explored in depth.

Cases from a range of geographies, scales, social and economic contextsExplores how smart cities can promote technological and social innovation in terms of direct impacts on livability, productivity and sustainabilityEstablishes an integrative framework based on empirical evidence to develop more innovative smart city initiativesInvestigates the role of governments in coordinating, fostering and guiding innovations resulting from smart city developmentsInterrogates the policies and governance structures which have been effective in supporting the development and deployment of smart cities
