Welcome, the IEEE Smart Cities Initiative spans multiple IEEE Societies and is designed to be a trusted voice in smart cities for the engineering, computing and technology communities around the world.
The initiative offers a Technical Community, through which IEEE seeks to help municipalities around the world address urban population growth by providing education, insight and expertise, and creating a forum for collaboration of all entities involved in planning successful “smart cities”.
The IEEE Smart Cities Initiative has the following objectives:
- Create a vibrant and worldwide cities network
- Share knowledge, experience and good practices
- Involve local governance, universities, industries and at first, local IEEE volunteers
- Manage the transition to urbanization
- Raise awareness of the benefits and downsides of technology
- Help guide the appropriate uses of technology
- Associate with other international organizations
