Towards a Typology of Data-Enabled Co-Creation Platforms in Smart Cities and Mapping of Practices in OECD Countries
In this article, we contribute to the conceptual research on the typologies of data-enabled co-creation platforms in the context of smart cities. We analyze the use of open data portals and city dashboards in the capital cities of all OECD member states. We focus on the data, visualization, and user interaction layers of these platforms. We show that while these platforms can be designed on different levels of complexity—from information provisio…
How do academic smart city centres operate in complex environments? A business model perspective
In recent years, an increasing number of academic smart city centres have emerged globally. These centres play a crucial role in conducting cutting-edge research and proposing innovative solutions for cities; they often operate in a complex multi-purpose, multi-disciplinary, and multi-stakeholder environment, even as they struggle to secure enough resources for their core activities. Despite their important role in smart city projects and initiat…
Women’s (im)mobility strategies and digital platform adoption
This paper investigates the shift in (im)mobility through the digitalization of practices, based on the views of women working in a multinational IT company in Pune, India. The digital phenomenon, accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic, influences all areas of society, pushing forward the online economy and transforming daily strategies by facilitating mobility and enabling immobility. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 15 digitally active …
Institutionalising smart city research and innovation
By exploring and defining characteristics of a smart city research and innovation centre, we contribute to the discussion on smart city development capacity. To do so, using a qualitative method, we review definitions of the concept and map international groups and institutes affiliated with this domain. Our main result is an overview of global research centres dealing with smart cities. One of the key implications of this paper is that instead o…
Implications of digitalization in facilitating socio-technical energy transitions in Europe
The energy sector is digitalizing - we see a lot of smart energy services providing higher value to customers through data processing, which also increases the importance of transparency and security of data access and processing. Nevertheless, the widespread use of these services is lagging behind for enabling fundamental transitions of energy systems. This interdisciplinary article operationalises the MLP of sustainability transitions and draws…
