The document summarizes key findings from the Emerging 7 Cities of Opportunity Study 2013 by PwC on the current status and future prospects of Moscow, São Paulo, Beijing, Mumbai, Mexico City, Istanbul, and Jakarta. It finds that Beijing leads in several categories like intellectual capital and innovation, technology readiness, and economic clout. Moscow ranks highest in sustainability and intellectual capital. Mexico City performs best in ease of doing business and health indicators. The report also projects population growth between 2013-2025, with Mumbai and Jakarta expected to see the largest increases.
Other cities of Asia like Ho Chi Min and Yangun will challenge Dhaka due to absence of viable spatial policies like physical or spatial planning, since the policy makers in those cities are investing and reforming their rules and regulations. Bangladesh should develop other cities like Chittagong, Rajshahi, Khulna, Barishal, Rangpuretc to face the new challenge of other cities of Asia.
The costs of living and doing business in New York City are high, but not as high as in some others, including London and Tokyo, Mr. Abruzzese said. New York’s most glaring weakness has been in the management of the environment and preparation to cope with storms and other natural disasters, he said. (The New York Times)

Global Power City index 2016 | The Mori Memorial FoundationBTO Educational
In light of the globally intensifying competition between
cities, the Global Power City Index (GPCI) evaluates and
ranks the major cities of the world according to their
magnetism, or their comprehensive power to attract
creative people and business enterprises from around
the world.
The Mori Memorial Foundation's Institute for Urban
Strategies rst released its GPCI in 2008 and has continued
to update its rankings every year based on new
research. Currently, the GPCI is highly rated as one
of the leading city indexes and is utilized as reference
material for urban policies and business strategies not
only in Tokyo and Japan, but also in many other cities
and countries worldwide. Moreover, the Institute actively
engages in the exchange of ideas on the topic of urban
competitiveness with leading global research institutions
at international conferences and lecture events.

The Global Cities Index (GCI) provides a comprehensive ranking of the leading global cities from around the world. It is designed to track the way cities plan as their populations grow and the world continues to shrink.
Today, cities around the world are seen as the engines for sustainable regional economic growth. But the playing field for cities is changing dramatically.
Fundamental changes such as climate change, technological advances, increasing societal demands and shifting power from national to local levels are changing the playing field of cities worldwide. While many cities in emerging and advanced economies continue to thrive (including Auckland), it's uncertain whether such growth can be sustained overtime.
Within this context and utilising the assessment methodology, this presentation was given by PwC global experts Hazem Galal and Egon de Haas at an Auckland Conversations event, in association with Auckland Council. It considers how Auckland is coping and what Auckland needs to do differently in the future, to ensure sustainable success in a global context.

SMART CITIES CHALLENGES IN INDIA -CASE STUDY OF CHENNAI CITYDr. C.VIJAI
The current study is based on smart city initiatives led by Honourable
Prime Minister Narendra Modi Government; to enhance the life quality
of Indian citizen and residents which has been gaining increasing
importance in the agendas of policymakers. This paper provides with a
comprehensive understanding of the notion of sc through the
elaboration of natural resources and energy, transport and mobility,
buildings, living, government, and economy and people. Results reveal
that a lot of strategies are yet to be decided by the government since
the concept of smart cities is very new in India and there are lot of
challenges that would be faced by the government during the
implementation stage of the smart city project. This paper focuses on
the concept of smart city as the Government of India launched the
smart city project for developing 100 smart cities in the country and
also concentrates on the challenges as well as the key areas for
development of smart cities in India along with the case study of
Chennai.
Smart cities-what's in it for citizens report: Smart Cities Technologies Give...DESMOND YUEN
The concept of “smart cities,” which employs Internet of Things (IoT) technologies such as connected sensors, meters and lights to collect and analyze data to improve public infrastructure and services, holds the promise to dramatically change the way citizens live, work and get around. But is there a way to tangibly measure these benefits?
Yes, there is. An Intel-sponsored study by Juniper Research estimates that smart cities have the potential to “give back” a remarkable 125 hours to every resident every year. Additionally, the study ranks the top 20 smart cities worldwide across four key areas: mobility, health care, public safety and productivity, and reveals how these cities deliver positive outcomes for increased time savings and productivity, increases in health and overall quality of life, and a safer environment.

Autonomous vehicles for smart and sustainable cities an in-depth exploratio...Araz Taeihagh
Amidst rapid urban development, sustainable transportation solutions are required to meet the increasing demands for mobility whilst mitigating the potentially negative social, economic, and environmental impacts. This study analyses autonomous vehicles (AVs) as a potential transportation solution for smart and sustainable development. We identified privacy and cybersecurity risks of AVs as crucial to the development of smart and sustainable cities and examined the steps taken by governments around the world to address these risks. We highlight the literature that supports why AVs are essential for smart and sustainable development. We then identify the aspects of privacy and cybersecurity in AVs that are important for smart and sustainable development. Lastly, we review the efforts taken by federal governments in the US, the UK, China, Australia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Germany, France, and the EU, and by US state governments to address AV-related privacy and cybersecurity risks in-depth. Overall, the actions taken by governments to address privacy risks are mainly in the form of regulations or voluntary guidelines. To address cybersecurity risks, governments have mostly resorted to regulations that are not specific to AVs and are conducting research and fostering research collaborations with the private sector.

ABSTRACT
In order to study innovations of governance in cities and urban regions we have chosen
to do research on smart cities and policies in a comparative perspective. This research
is an exploratory comparative study of cities emphasizing different ways to address the
definition and implementation of the smart concept. We analyze and compare cases from China, Japan, Malaysia, Spain and United States to find out differences and
commonalities in smart city governance and public policies. Based on these cases, we
also draw tentative conclusions for governance and public urban planning in the areas
and management and organization, technology, policy context, people and communities,
economy, built in infrastructure and natural environment.

Given the speed of “creative destruction” in
current technological innovation, the point for
emerging economies is not necessarily to be
first out of the blocks in technology products, but
to adopt the technology best suited to one’s
needs.

This indicator affects emerging cities even
more deeply than mature ones because the
former also have to contend with a general
skepticism – both from outsiders and their own
residents – regarding any shortcomings,
inadequacies, and lack of capacity in these
areas of public policy.

In fact, Moscow’s achievements in this
indicator go much deeper than are apparent.
The Russian capital does exceptionally well not
only against the emerging cities. It also ranks
No. 7 overall in sustainability and the natural
environment in the complete rankings of all 27
Cities of Opportunity, tied with Paris and just
below Stockholm.

While the world’s emerging cities are
undeniably dynamic economic centres, they’ve
also increasingly become difficult places in
which to live. Emerging cities cannot continue
to grow in, or attract, the numbers of people
they have until now without at some point
overwhelming their infrastructure and their
own citizens.

What is being measured here is not only the
aggregate strength of a city’s economy, but the
extent of that strength, how far beyond its
limits a city’s economic influence reaches, not
just regionally or nationally, but globally – a
city’s “ability to translate urban strength into a
global economic presence.”

There are no surprises in this indicator.
If anything, the data confirm most of the media
commentary and expert analysis of the past
couple of years regarding on-going
developments in the economies of the emerging
cities and the emerging world as a whole.

Aggregate population growth, 2013 – 2025*
Moscow and Mexico City find
themselves in the best position
to limit the environmental,
social and economic burdens
of continual population
growth. Stable populations, or
even incremental growth,
allow for more systematic
planning and for passing on
the benefits of economic
expansion to urban residents.

population growth: the
two cities that currently
have the largest number
of inhabitants, and will
continue to have them in
2025, also demonstrate
the consequences of very
large populations. Beijing
will not be able to

61% in the future.
