SHARING CITIES REPLICATION PLAYBOOKS AND TOOLKITS

SHARING CITIES PLAYBOOKS

The Sharing Cities playbooks are comprehensive implementation toolkits designed to help cities interested in – or in the process of – replicating smart cities solutions, to understand the steps required to successfully implement these new technologies in their own urban contexts.

The playbooks provide practical guidance and insights, answer common questions and concerns, and provide recommendations through the knowledge gained from testing and implementing the solutions in the three lighthouse cities of London, Lisbon and Milan.
