On November 24, 2015 I had the chance to be an invited speaker at the international Zagreb Forum, that was held with its main subject being Smart Cities.
The Zagreb Forum is a yearly gathering of government officials, practitioners, industrial representatives and researchers around a governance topic. This year, the overarching issue was "Co-Creation of Creative City by Citizens".
I had the pleasure to listen to several interesting presentations from Smart (or to-be-smart) Cities from all over Europe. One should note the presentations from Amsterdam, Barcelona, Ljubljana and Vienna, among many others.
I presented the SMART-MED approach, a method for developing smart city / smart islands solutions through enabling entrepreneurship in local societies. The SMART-MED approach is already a proposal by a consortium comprising islands and municipalities from Greece, Cyprus, Slovenia, Croatia and Italy.
