SHARING CITIES

Sharing Cities is looking to work with three to five cities with an interest in replicating smart city solutions. Cities would get access to information and expertise, and benefit from the experiences of our lighthouse and fellow cities in implementing these solutions. Benefits of collaboration include:

Direct contact with experts who are responsible for the implementation of various smart city measures
On-site visit in one of the lighthouse cities to analyse the implementation
Access to deliverables of the project that led to the implementation of the measures
Testing of Sharing Cities engagement documents
Visibility for their own initiatives
Support for the development of a smart city action plan

Sharing Cities is launching an open call for cities and will evaluate applications on the basis of their:

Commitment to allocate sufficient staff time to prepare an action plan, participate in a study visit, and give feedback on some engagement tools
Proof of an administrative/political commitment to implement the solution(s)
Consideration of developing the solution at a certain scale
Interest in replicating more than one measure

Priority will be given to cities not yet involved in a Smart Cities Communities lighthouse project and to cities located in the EU or surrounding countries.

Applications close on Friday 12 July.
The application form can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdZiM93eu20WHLVWVG70EbHQTVCpPQJXt2yx_kuP-ICO9xnrg/viewform
