Key findings by NESTA, a UK think tank
Many ‘top down’ smart city ideas have failed to
deliver on their promise, combining high costs and
low returns.
‘Collaborative technologies’ offer cities another
way to make smarter use of resources, smarter
ways of collecting data and smarter ways to make
decisions.
Collaborative technologies can also help citizens
themselves shape the future of their cities.
