The document discusses how collaboration, digitization, and new technologies can help address problems facing cities. It notes that the world's population is projected to grow significantly in the coming decades, concentrating in urban areas, especially in Africa, Asia, and India. This will put pressure on resources and infrastructure. However, technologies connecting billions of devices can help optimize systems and sharing economies. To deal with challenges like pollution, congestion, and waste, cities need smart digital infrastructure and common standards, as well as collaboration between public, private, and citizen sectors. This ecosystem approach can lead to benefits like reduced travel, energy use, and pollution while improving lives.
Slide 1: Welcome slide
Based on our current welcome slide.
Updated main title: What makes cities smart?
Subtitle: Collaboration, digitization and new technologies are the cure for many city deceases
Slide 2 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Two generations of population growth ahead'
up: We display the relative growth per continent with arrows indicating how much population will grow between 2015 and 2050
- Africa 109%, Oceania 44%, LA and Caribbean 24%, NA 21%, Asia 20%, Europe -4%
graph: use the population graph (attached as GRAPH-SLIDE2) and make the style look like the other graphs between year 1950 and 2100
bullets:
1 - The world population will grow by 2 billion people the coming 30 years
2 - Almost all of this growth is in Africa, India and Asia
3 - TBD
Population growth chart: scale 1900 or 1950 to 2100 – should show that population is projected to peak around 2050 and 9.x billion people. Ideally a stacked chart showing the continents.
Slide 3 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Ageing population puts pressure on society'
down: ‘Working population’
up: ‘Retired population’ (doubled as a percentage of world population between today and 2050)*
graph: the one we have for average life expectancy rising
bullets:
1 - Average life expectancy is rising dramatically
2 - This puts pressure on healthcare, benefit systems and society at large
3 - TBD
Life expectancy: do we have a cart that shows the differences by continent?
Maybe we should add one that shows the age pyramid changing as well between 1950 and 2050? At least spell out how many more people in & and absolute we’ll have in the ‘retired’ age bracket above 65 and how many people will be in the active working range of 18 to 65?
Slide 4 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Increase in disposable income transforms societies'
down: ‘extreme poverty reduced by 1.4 billion'
up: 'net disposable income'
up: ‘communications, energy & general consumption'
graph: Can we find a graph outlining disposable income looking forward? An alternative is to turn this into a graphics “Net disposal income is rising. 800 million people are living on less than $1.25 a day compared to 2 billion 25 years ago."
bullets:
1 - With the exception of Africa the world is turning middle class
2 - This leads to an explosion in developed world type of consumer behaviour
3 - Consumption patterns drive high energy and communications demand
Disposable income: should show how the disposable income rises in various continents Africa, Asia, LA, India and then what people do with this money: build housing, buy appliances (energy), buy mobility and cars (Mobility – energy) and communication (information democratization). Focus less on poverty going down as wealth going up.
Slide 5 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Rural dwellers will never outnumber city folks again'
up: ‘3 billion increase in urban population’ (this is from today to 2050)
going nowhere: ’no change in rural population’ (this is from today to 2050)
graph: the build of the three pie charts we had from 1950, 2017 to 2050 (please add a white white border to the circles)
bullets:
1 - Urbanisation will put enormous pressure on cities
2 - 600 cities will account for 65% of global GDP in 2025
3 - This equates to a proportionally higher energy consumption, pollution, etc
Combine this with energy consumption that is statistically higher in cities than in rural areas and show the multiplicative effect Can show this with the up-arrows as well, try to make a calculation for a ‘typical’ middle city in China growing from say 5 mio to 10 mio within 20 years (Shenzhen as example from the past translated into a future city)
Slide 5 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Rural dwellers will never outnumber city folks again'
up: ‘3 billion increase in urban population’ (this is from today to 2050)
going nowhere: ’no change in rural population’ (this is from today to 2050)
graph: the build of the three pie charts we had from 1950, 2017 to 2050 (please add a white white border to the circles)

Slide 6 using WIREFRAME without the bullets, Title: 'Economic power is moving to Asia'
up: left hand side the same three arrows we had in the trend 2 with the same text
graph: Peter may have a link to a map that shows (a) a normal world map, (b) a distorted world map where GDP has been projected and influenced the size of countries (the closest I could find is http://www.viewsoftheworld.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/GDPGrowth2010-2015.jpg). Peter would like to start with the ‘real’ map, then jump forward 25 years at a time from e.g. 1950 and forwards (e.g. four builds for the years of 1950, 1975, 2000, 2025). We will then also have a bar to the right of this map showing the change in GDP in real currency numbers on the right hand side (starting low and going up). I suggest you ask Peter for this link when you talk to him. Once we know if this is doable we can easily find global GDP numbers which should be easy.
bullets:
1 - Asia is reclaiming its historic role as dominant economic region
2 - The power shift will lead to many unknown consequences
3 - TBD
good chart, just need the animation starting with a geographical map and the moving to economic GDP distribution in animation
Slide 7 using WIREFRAME, Title: 'Digitization connects people, devices and businesses at an exponential rate'
up: ‘100 billion connected devices’
up: ‘Ecosystems'
down: ’Disconnected organisations'
graph: We need an IoT graph with lots of interconnections
bullets:
1 - The digital transformation affects all traditional businesses
2 - Decision power is moving from boardrooms to consumers
3 - 100 billion connected devices changes the society fabric
let’s keep the same numbers as in other presentations, where we say 200 billion things by 2025, combine with the HCC chart that shows the uptake of devices and the speed of adoption, insert tis graphic (improved from the original rather crude black & white graphic) in the graphics corner together with the Internet Of Everything charts (like right one better, but there are even better ones)
Slide 8, Title: ‘Mega-trends have an extreme affect on cities'
Here we will have a new but different type of graph, see GRAPH-SLIDE8: these 6 trends - putting pressure on a city (in the middle) - pressure on the city (pollution, energy consumption, congestion, health issues).
Trend chart: The left trends are the headlines of the charts before, show a picture of a mega city in the middle with smog and traffic congestion, ideally including a power plant. Improve the arrows – maybe just show a block-arrow
Population growth
Ageing population
Increase in disposable income
Urbanization
Economic shift east
Information Age
Slide 9, using WIREFRAME, Title: 'There is hope'
up: 'women’s education’
up: ‘disposable income'
down: ‘poverty'
graph: 'fertility going down' (we reuse the fertility graph)
bullets:
1 - Doesn’t solve the problem the next 30 years
2 - Requires a re-think of how we consume resources
3 - TBD
There is hope: need to work on the wording) combine charts falling fertility and population growth peaking, need to show that this is coming too late – still two generations of unprecedented growth ahead – need to do something different, NOW!

Slide 10, using WIREFRAME, Title: ‘There is hope'
up: 'sharing economy'
down: 'owning economy'
graph: A picture including logos from Uber, AirBnB, LendingClub, Prosper, HomeAway, lyft, freelancer, chegg, trademe, ebay, etsy*
bullets:
1 - Individuals want to move from egosystems to ecosystems
2 - Ownership is becoming less and less important
3 - Convenience and cost will be key factors in the future
*) http://venturebeat.com/2015/06/04/the-sharing-economy-has-created-17-billion-dollar-companies-and-10-unicorns/
Show the general trend to share in the economy from bigger to very small consumer (or investment) goods airplanes – houses – cars – mobility – globally also with the advent of UBER, Airbnb, public transport etc., will have to work on wording strongly here

Chart “Need to Understand the World as Interconnected Ecosystems”; two critical ingredient are communication of any element to any other element in a timely, safe and secure manner and data. Draw the chart based on the graphics used in the other ecosystems charts…
Slide 13 - ‘A smart city strategy equates to a collaborative top-down and bottom-up approach'
picture: re-use the top-down bottom-up slide.
Top-down & bottom-up: need to reword and reverse: ‘A world upside down’: governments will need to provide the infrastructure of a digital backbone and services including public data (Government top down, but infrastructure bottom up) and the individuals can do service to exploit the digital backbone quasi OTT over the top (top-down) be it persons / communities / socials circles of any kind / SMEs or large enterprise; message must be we need to do both!
Slide 14: 'A common ecosystem language is necessary'
graph: The DERA picture (you also had it in Nice, will send you Peter’s HCC keynote just in case via DropBox in case it will be needed)
Please make sure the various ecosystems are overlapping and interconnected – at least partially. Important for the massage and already used before.
Slide 15 Next chart (new) to be value chart – see below. Can also reverse left to right i.e. starting with digital on left and ending with positive impact on city diseases on the right hand side. Complicated chart but showing the various positive effects of digital approaches to the city’s problems. The boxes should be impacted by green lines and showcasing that the red boxes become gradually greener as we implement more and more such digital solutions.
Sldie 16 - Final chart: message: “digital transformation and collaboration can make a better world” – picture of a digital city that has a warm and welcoming, peaceful image
