Challenge
The path to transform cities into Smart Cities cannot be done by municipalities alone. It is necessary to create large-scale projects that can involve all the various stakeholders (organizations / companies / institutions) of the cities and citizens too, to propose innovative solutions based on the real needs of the communities.
Approach
Polis 2020 is a research project aimed at creating a platform that provides city decision-makers, citizens and public officials with technological and methodological tools that can foster the interaction between them and the development of new solutions for cities. In this way, it is possible to enhance the digital transformation of the city, through open innovation processes and with the continuous involvement of many stakeholders.
