AIOTI and the Smart Cities Working Group
Recommendations
Upcoming activities

3. AIOTI
ALLIANCE FOR INTERNET OF THINGS INNOVATION
The creation of a dynamic European IoT ecosystem
supported by open technologies and platforms
Overcoming market fragmentation
Fostering entrepreneurship
Preparation of future IoT research as well as innovation
and standardisation policies

AIOTI and WG8 Goals

4. AIOTI
ALLIANCE FOR INTERNET OF THINGS INNOVATION
200+ organizations involved
20+ very active participants
Composition:
o Mostly supply side (Large IT companies + SMEs)
o A few Universities and Technological centers
o A few Cities and other demand side organizations
Regular calls and two F2F meetings (June-Lisbon
& September-Madrid)
Main focus so far on LSP recommendations

About WG8

5. AIOTI
ALLIANCE FOR INTERNET OF THINGS INNOVATION
a solution that solves a real-existing problem / need
[for citizens or users];
assessed as valuable by citizens and communities;
scalable to the whole city;
demonstrated replicability in other cities and
interoperability in the city;
sustainable from environmental, social, economic, and
financial point of view;
and able to thrive local economy (SMEs &
entrepreneurs).

Technical Recommendations for Smart Cities
Support an incremental and scalable deployment of
infrastructures: modular and integrated with existing
infrastructure, expandable and pushing intelligence to the
edge.
Interoperability of IoT and other services at the data layer,
independent of protocols, and agreeing on APIs and
models.
Reuse existing open specifications and foster data
openness policies.
Enable a configurable privacy and security framework
from design, adapted to local legislations.

Acceptability Recommendations for Smart Cities
Involve all the stakeholders in the testing zone to
guarantee the success of the pilots, engaging with some of
them through flexible mechanisms: open calls, challenges,
training, etc.
Define common “top” problems in representative cities
and city networks and to define feasible, significant and
scalable testing zones.
Focus on users’ and citizens’ needs, providing evidence
that real problems and needs are tackled in the pilot and
validating results through the engagement with users,
citizens and communities

Business Recommendations for Smart Cities
Provide proof that the business aspect of the proposal
guarantees 3BL impact and the sustainability of the
investment beyond the end of the project,
Business plans, describing investment in infrastructures
and ownership, considering OPEX and CAPEX, money flows
and relationships among the stakeholders network.
Plans for pilot scalability in the city.
Innovative business models and collaboration
mechanisms.
Social, environmental and financial KPIs.

Other Recommendations for Smart Cities
Tackle multiple domains or verticals in the city, exploiting
data from existing (sometimes legacy) systems in the city,
where IoT can unlock additional context data to enable the
required solution.
Test and push the legal boundaries that can hamper the
feasibility of certain solutions or technologies in the pilot,
even if it is not clear at proposal stage how these issues will
be tackled

Upcoming activities
 Dissemination of the recommendations. Many local/specific to
partners events identifies
 Towards a European Digital Single Market for Smart Cities
 High Level Architecture for Smart Cities (including beyond IoT).
 Identify requirements to be prescribed that would lead to overcome
market segmentation. Identify critical elements that would make it a
success (eg. SIMs in GSM)
 Check standards and identify gaps and interoperability aspects
 Roadmap about impacting the market & standards
 Involvement of the demand side
 Maturity model for smart cities from the IoT perspective
 Involvement of more cities-related organizations (e.g. Nesta). Consider
other non-IT aspects (as governance, scalability, procurement…)
