Abstract:
A common approach transforming a city into a smart city is to study successful transformation approaches. However, there is no recommended adaptation process for smart city transformation, thus often resulting in manual, project-based and costly efforts. In this paper we propose a methodology, tools and a process which guides through the documentation and transformation process when transferring smart city innovation to other cities. Considering public value as main result of the smart city value chain, an adaptation of the business canvas to a smart city canvas allows a holistic view on the most important aspects during smart city transformation. Moreover, a blueprint template is proposed together with a process which has proven to be a valuable tool for the adaptation of successful smart city concepts to other cities. The approach has been validated in the context of a large-scale smart city innovation project.
