6. What is the problem with ‘smart city’?
 Nobody knows what it really is. Or what its benefits are…
 Do municipalities have enough know-how of digital transitions?
 Which city has sufficient budget?

7. What was our approach?
 Learn from the best
 Yoda, Cruijff & industrial experts
 Living Labs: learning by doing
 …and the money…?
“Do or do not.
There is no try”
Yoda, Jedi Master
To score,
you have to shoot

11. From software to platform
 Organically developed since 2012
 It works! But is not suited for scaling up
 Combines ‘point solutions’
 Not vendor-independent
 European initiative FIWARE
 Future of Internet –ware
 Open source

12. Fits on NL and EU reference architecture

13. What is the solution we are sharing?
 Our Smart City StarterK!t
 5 years Living Lab experience in 1 package
 Contains:
 The policy instruments
 Access to a platform (supported by ATOS)
 Available: www.smartcitystarterkit.com

14. What are the benefits of our solution?
 We need ‘horizontal’ solutions
 Re-usable software component, scalable solutions, joint platform
 Our horizontal solution: Smart City StarterK!t
 Develop faster: skip 5 years of Living Lab development
 Cheaper: save at least 50k to realize an integrated/horizontal platform
approach
 Smarter: jointly collaborating on re-usable software

15. What are the costs?
 Our Smart City StarterK!t is available for free
 ATOS will ask a modest fee for maintenance
 Time will not be lost by re-inventing the wheel
 Can we allocate available budgets to go
forward together?

16. What is next?
 Today: launch at Beyond Data Event
 Table Talk by Pels Rijcken
 May 15th: ‘Switch to Smart Cities’ at Pels Rijcken
 Dutch Technology Week (Eindhoven, June 4 – 9)
 StarterK!t Strategic Partner meeting
 www.smartcitystarterkit.com

17. Wrapping up
 Learning-by-doing is fine
 You need a lot of energy and persistence
 Living Labs are great for learning
 They lead to many solutions
 That do not (easily) work together and do not scale up
 Smart City actually is about Smart Society
 The Smart City StarterK!t can make development faster, cheaper and smarter
