EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SMART CITY, SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION AS A MODEL FOR URBAN ECONOMIC GROWTH

In this paper we focus on the concept of smart city, defined as cities where investments in human and social capital and infrastructure, along with ICT progress and innovation fuel the sustainable economy and stimulate growth in quality of life, with a focus on smart natural resource management. We...
