Smart Cities Around The World

Just like cities are not made up by the bricks but by its inhabitants, Smart Cities are much more than fast internet connection, big data, and interlinked applications. The key is to set the human – both as a user and citizen – at the core of the smart solutions, and keep the local context firmly in mind in order to gain most from the technology. Smart Cities has been a buzzword for a number of years, and it is stated to contain endless opportunities for growth and welfare. Although full-scale Smart Cities and real market opportunities are only emerging slowly, it is an area that not only Denmark seeks to exploit and benefit from; it is also an area within which Denmark has better conditions for excelling than most other countries. In order to unleash the Danish potential, develop, and capitalize from smart city technologies it is paramount that we understand how the rest of the world positions itself in relation to what it means to be a smart and digital city, and where the synergies with Danish strongholds are to be found. The Innovation Centre Denmark is located in six of the biggest and most technology oriented mega hubs in the world: Silicon Valley, Shanghai, Munich, Sao Paolo, New Delhi and Seoul. We have spent some time investigating how smart cities develop, which policies are implemented and who the major stakeholders are. This article will outline some trends and policies taking a point of departure in American, South Korean and German projects and decisions.

正如城市并非由砖石堆砌而成，而是由其居民构成，智慧城市（Smart Cities）亦绝非仅等同于高速互联网、大数据与互联互通应用。其核心在于将人类——同时作为使用者与公民——置于智能解决方案的核心位置，并牢牢锚定本土语境，方能从技术中获取最大收益。智慧城市（Smart Cities）作为热词已出现多年，据称其蕴含着增长与民生福祉的无限机遇。尽管全面落地的智慧城市与真实市场机遇仅在缓慢浮现，但这一领域不仅是丹麦谋求利用与获益的方向，更是丹麦相较多数国家更具领先优势的赛道。为释放丹麦潜力、研发并盘活智慧城市技术，我们亟需明晰全球其他地区如何定义智能与数字城市的内涵并进行自身定位，以及可与丹麦核心优势形成协同效应的领域所在。丹麦创新中心（Innovation Centre Denmark）在全球六大最具影响力且以科技为导向的超级枢纽设有分支机构：硅谷、上海、慕尼黑、圣保罗、新德里与首尔。我们已针对智慧城市的发展路径、落地政策与核心利益相关方开展了相关调研。本文将以美国、韩国及德国的项目与决策为切入点，梳理相关趋势与政策动向。
